First Visit for 2020

Return to Discussions

Yesterday, I went to Gunnison for the first time in 2020. It usually takes me an hour to get down there. Yesterday it took 3 hours. 2 hours waiting to get thru the toll to pay for parking. Normally I go on a Monday or Tuesday in July and August, depending on the weather. But yesterday, had the day off and since it was a nice beach day took a drive down around 12:15. I finally got on the beach by 3:45. It appears everyone decided to hit the beach as well. I did have a nice time while there. I know that on the weekends you have to get there early if you want to find parking. When I did get to the parking lot there was plenty of parking. It seems that people were using credit cards to pay for their beach parking. It did not help that a lot of drivers were cutting the line which slowed things down as well. Hopefully this was just a one time occurrence with the traffic at the beach and not going to be a regular thing. I really do not want to get up early on a weekday to go to the beach.

RE:First Visit for 2020

Now that I am retired, I never go on a weekend in June - August so I can avoid the crowd.
