Hey, all. Thanks to Charlie and Patrick and Candice for the tips on access to Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge.
Hannah Floyd and I were all ready to go out there this Monday morning, Oct. 19, when our phones informed us that the refuge is closed Mondays and Tuesdays; and not open till 9am the other days of the week. What, legally and practically, does that mean? Is it in fact not possible to enter the refuge except Wed.-Sun. starting at 9am? Not trying to self-present as some rules-defying scofflaw. But I know that "closed" has very different interpretations at different federal properties. On a personal note, I'm a Johnny-come-lately on the Arsenal scene. In 2019, Texas super-naturalist John Karges kidnapped me and forced me to take him to the Arsenal. First-time visit for me! John was extremely skeptical that I'd never been there. What can I say?--I have seen the light. I love that place so much.
