OMG that is the best news I've  heard all month.  The keeping the hippies out of the mountains for labor day is the best part.  Awsome.  249 Alpine here I come. :)

The bulls are already fired up.  I was in 356 last Saturday night and they bugled from 9pm until midnight.  It made for a great time around the campfire.
