Negativity is strong in this thread.

Weisan, look at this link below and do some research on where to go to avoid the fire and smoke. Keep in mind that fires in the west are a common occurrence every summer.

The other part is well covered. Use common sense, be extra polite and you will do fine.

Negativity? The Pine Gulch Fire is already the 6th biggest fire in Colorado history, and it is only 7% contained. By tomorrow, it will almost certainly rise to 4th place on the list. This fire is no joke.

I hate adding to the negativity, but the past two nights my rides have been followed by 2 hrs of coughing and irritation from the smoke. I'm in Golden.

At least the sunsets are pretty.

Just to be clear, I'm not asking / advising you to stay away.
