This was my first year -- was aiming for a big buckle but realized that wasn't in the cards by the time I got to the top of Columbine, so had an enjoyable lower-stress ride back and finished in about 10 hours and was happy with a small buckle for my first attempt.

Reading in other forums, I've heard horror stories about the US Forest Service shutting down affected areas for months after a fire. Any insights?
