The first S24O (Sub-24-Hour-Overnighter, pronounced “Ess-Two-Four-Oh”) of the season is next Tuesday. This one is a shorty: meet at Circle K on N. Broadway at 6, ride up Sunshine to Gold Hill, camp above Gold Hill. Back early to start the day on Wednesday morning. This S24O will be more like a sub-13 hour endeavor.
The point of S24O’s is to cheat the system, not plan much, get in a mini-adventure, and be back for work the next morning. These are a super fun, quick way to reset your brain mid-week. It’s also a good way to test new camp gear without a big commitment.
When: KSU at 6pm
Where:
Circle K, North Broadway
Note: For food, Gold Hill Store closes at 7, and Gold Hill Inn closes at 8pm. We can either eat at one of these two options, or bring camp food. Your call for which you want to do. The camp spot is another 10-15 minutes past Gold HIll. The closest pit toilet is the one behind Gold Hill Store. Be prepared for potentially crazy mountain weather.
Have questions? Ask. Otherwise, see you at Circle K.
Here’s a photo of @Danrutty and my camp in a different place in June 2024. We got absolutely hammered with wind/rain early that evening. ![]()
