May 22 - Perhaps not the scenery we were hoping for.
39.972874°, -105.238697°

The Denver West coordinates were reached by User:Akedrou. It is in south Boulder. A few other users are planning to get there today as well.

It took nearly 2 hours to walk from the start, but that's mostly because I got lost in Tantra Park, and walked down to Marshall Road before I realized it was on the other side of Broadway. Anyway, I Skipped home and it took 30 minutes. I also got a bagel.

An attempt was made to mark it off, but a lady chased away marker claiming kids would end up playing in the street if they saw it. Marker moved a bit north of the playground. Boulder is ridiculous. Is there an award for "dealing with uncooperative people"? I don't think even the worst farmer or rancher could match this concerned mother. Taking pictures of uncooperative people would probably make things worse though...
