Scanner Posts

Well said Cinnamongirl. (It's ok though, I understand the motivation)

I also like the front page scoller idea.
We could post to a lot of sites at once that way

Because there are no radio stations in the Fairplay area...The River Rat out of Salida is good, but when they are talking roads and weather it is like they are on a different planet from the Fairplay area...and the TV stations while covering the weather and roads, mostly only talk about I-70. Unless there is an accident on 285, you hardly ever hear it mentioned. And Highway 9 is never mentioned...heck, Hoosier Pass is ALWAYS open, so why even mention it. It was closed (read "not recommended for travel") a couple years ago, and the CDOT website hadn't updated that information...since Highway 9 is used by the military to get from Colorado Springs to I-70, I've been told that it can't officially be closed...it has to stay open.

I appreciate having this site to go to should I have a question of the roadways and knowing that the information is more up-to-date than any other media or website I could go to. Thanks.

The more information given, the better.

If you want to add a some mile markers to your list:

MM207 is the bottom of Kenosha Pass (north side) - Webster/Wilderness On Wheels area
MM203 the summit of Kenosha Pass
MM200 is Lost Park Road (south side of Kenosha Pass
MM197 is Park County Road 35 (south of Jefferson)

Thanks Southpark! Revised the list.

I wouldn't like the scanner stuff on the home page because I don't go there. I like them on the Board Index page. I prefer the scanner (road and fire) postings here better than elsewhere because 285Bound seems to be more current on what's happening.

For those of you who chose the "hard to find the information"
What would you do to make the posts easier to locate?

ohhhh, well to answer your question becky, it looks like i never scroll down far enough on the front page - that's why i never find them until i go to the board index and scroll all the way down. i will make a point of scrolling further down the front page. sorry about that.
