Hello everyone —Here’s the FC-PAAC schedule for November.
*** PLEASE NOTE: for Daylight Savings, we will once again be shifting our Fall/Winter start-up time to 10:00 am. This will change back to 9:00 am in the Spring.
*** Also, due to Colorado’s unpredictable weather, some paint-outs might be moved to a new location and/or cancelled. Always check the weekly email reminder and weather reports before heading out.
Friday, November 6 — Soderberg Open Space, West of Fort Collins
10:00 am -- 1:00 pm ← New Time for Daylight Savings
3909 Shoreline Dr, Fort Collins, CO 80526
NOTE: $10 fee
This paint-out will be tucked against the elements on the eastern flank of Horsetooth Mountain. Wonderful foothills views and unique flora/fauna. There are remnants of the historic Soderberg ranch still standing there, which adds further interest.
PLEASE NOTE there is a $10 vehicle fee (unless you already have the Larimer County annual pass, which includes access to Horsetooth, Carter Lake, Eagle’s Nest, Devil’s Backbone, Hermit Park, etc. for 13 months: https://www.larimer.gov/naturalresources/parks/permits )

A longtime FC-PAAC favorite! Cottonwoods, ponds, scenic views of the mountains and Cache la Poudre River. Usually hawks and shorebirds, as well. We will be meeting in the NORTH parking lot, off of Timberline Rd. (If parking is filled, there's an overflow lot just across the road by the river.)
