Ha! 1994 was cold and snowy. Many people were in their ski clothes! I was wishing I’d have had mine. Spent a lot of that year huddled under blankets in my friend’s VW bus; only came out to see a few favorites on a couple of days. But it was all good. Always is; always an adventure.
Time to buck up lil cowgirls and boys and pull out the swimsuits and fleece…or maybe just a fleece swimsuit would be good :huh :flower
Now I want to see a fleece swimsuit, that would rock!! Man I wish I could be there this year, but shoulder surgery is in my very near future so no dice :(. We’ll see ya’ll next year for sure! :cheers
I’ve been waiting for the traditional “panic about the weather” thread to start and I guess this is it! Holy crap…it might rain!!! We are all going to die!! Someone call the Red Power Ranger! No worries, folks. It’s not the rain that will kill you…directly. It’s the hypothermia, lightning, trees blowing over, and badger attacks that will likely do you in.
But, with that said, I highly suggest that you verify that your tent is waterproof, that you stake your tent down very well, and that your rain flies are pulled out and away from the bottom edge of your tent. A dry house is very important. Also bring extra shoes, a good rain poncho, and a sense of adventure when going to the porta pot while wearing the poncho. And, above all else, remember the key phrase: If you don’t like the weather in Colorado, just wait 10 minutes.
The rain will pass quickly this year
Dancin in the rain ROCKS!!!
We’ll be watching for the pretty girl in the fleece bikini :flower
Erndog gave me a shamwow at RG last year and that really helped me get the water out of the corners of my tent after some good rains. Our tents were practically on top of each other, but hey, it’s all good.
As long as Hooch’s bacon stays dry in the cooler, life will be great. :thumbsup
I love the weather, and I love adventure! My poncho is ready and my brain is packed and ready to go…(now to pack the car :huh ) SKOL TELLURIDERS! :cheers
wow, what a sham, wow. I have one, never used it and seems to te the perfect lightweight friend to bring along.
:wave
You know, traditional weather rocks work really well too.

Us native Minnesotans have nothing to worry about weather-wise. We can hack it…and if it gets too nasty we can all just get together and complain about the NFC Championship game’s. :argh
Skol!
it’s not the rain that’s a problem it’s the rain followed 5 minutes later by 85 degree heat , followed by the snow and or hail that falls a few minutes after that! but it’s all good, the pseudo snowball fight last year or the year before was kind of fun. :thumbsup :drive
According to “AccuWeather”, Sunshine all days with maybe afternoon thundershowers Thursday.
I’ll have my snow and rain gear anyway …
:concert

Don’t buy the bravado - Hooch is well known for hiding in his tent (to protect his bacon) the minute the first drop falls.
Time to get out my grizzly fur bikini.

A Bacon Bikini works in any weather
Cold and rain/snow still in the forecast for this weekend. Drying and warming Tues. Supposed to be pretty nice for festival proper.

It’s been so dang hot down here in Albuquerque that I’m looking forward to getting snowed on this weekend. :cheers
