Jim, take your finger OFF the CAPS LOCK button and move slowly away from the keyboard. Now, take a deep breathe. There, isn't that better?

Thanks for the report and welcome to the forum but exactly as Todd said please don't use all caps in your posts/replies (it's bad Internet etiquette and just difficult to read).

Sorry I used capital letters. Can't be perfect like all of you I guess. Just trying to relay what I saw.

Welcome Jim, and thanks for the report. Hopefully we'll see you back here!
Good luck next week, and I for one would love it if you could give us some reports from down near Ouray this coming week. Since most folks here are in the Denver area, not as many get down that far until later (like me this year, not til Oct.1) and would love to have some updates. Thanks and happy shooting!

Just back from the Breckenridge area. It is very good! near peak! The French Creek area is OUTSTANDING RIGHT NOW!. Off to Southpark on Sat. As far as Ouray goes, I go there around the 20th every year and every year with in a day or so the Red Mountain and Silverton areas are very good. I think Oct. is getting near the end.

Where is the French Creek area? Can't find any info on it, can someone help me out asap, have to hit the sack in a few, heading to Boreas early mornin' and figured this is close by and would check it out
Thanks all

French creek is in Breckenridge. Ask where the road to the Country boy mine is. Just follow that road as far as it goes. It is outstanding all the way.
