Better atleast stop in the basin store and tell Lonnie hello....also, if it were me I'd demand she make you a grilled onion and over easy egg hamburger!! She'll tell you no BUT keep smoozing her and she'll cave


Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high, keep your eyes fixed to where the trail meets the sky...

Clint, you ever had their fresh baked pies? Also, if you can eat their double cheese burger completely you're a monster. It is huge.

It is open now. pc

 

[liecabucks]

Never have ate the pies there but I'm sure they are to die for. Also, keep an eye open(or closed) for the girl nextdoor haha I hear she likes to walk around not wearing much!

Hey huntdux I sent you a pm

 

[Paul_Crawford]

Huntdux, where is the old CCC camp from the store? I thought I knew that area by heart! pc

 

[huntdux]

Its the old redvale CCC camp if you take the first right after passing the store on the redvale rd and then drive until the pavement ends and turn left its where everyone gets there water. The camp shut down in the 40's. Hope that makes since Paul.

Huntdux, I know exactly where you ate talking about. Lots of people camp there. Straight shot up to Hamilton Mesa through the burn. Also, when you make the right turn that hose on the corner used to be a schoolhouse. pc

Must be the same place a whole bunch of people camp!

So is the Basin Store/Caf? Closed or not?















I used to know of places worth Hiking in to for Elk & Deer!
Thanks to Illegal Bastards & the USFS not enforcing Rules you can Zing in to them Places on Wheelers now & not see a Damn thing!
But by GAWD it don't take long for them U-Tards to get there with all the Unethical BS and the New Technology!

I knew you would as soon as I described it better Paul. I heard that by the houses and store there used to be a hotel but it burnt down quite a few years ago. Don't known if that's true though. Do you know if the Griffith's really sell off all there land for 12 million that was the story spread around while i was back there

The first time I went to CO was 1979, and it was an old store and hotel. It was run by an old lady. It burnt down a few years later, and rebuilt the way you see it today. The old store was really cool. I've never heard of the Griffiths. Where was their property located? When did they sell? The only BIG landowners I know personally are the Snyders and Bob Bray.
