It'd be great if somehow I could work in my new-found love of watching zombie movies with getting in shape for this endeavor.

Looks like there might be an easier way up. No offense, Jay.

Grug, if you get a really old (read: "heavy") fold-out couch, and then try to tunnel into the mattress part and out the bottom back end while watching a zombie movie, it might work.
Brings a whole new meaning to Off The Couch.

Grug
Just head up I-25 north 'till you get to Cheyenne.
Turn west on I-80 and drive a bit until you see the
sign. You're there.

Grug this may come as a shock to you but I did a little snooping around and Jaybro is NOT Dr. Joyce Brothers!!! Lucille is a good nick name for a gruff harry man. Good luck, hope I have helped.

When is the planned attack? It'd be fun to make an event of it. The Grugfest has a nice ring to it!

eeyonkee: After you deal with Lucille, wander west to City of Rocks.
Donini rumour is: "Old-fart/Baby-back rib fest there, in early June."
You can heal, and revisit your FA's.
Seriously!
Talk to Donini for dates.
Fritz!

what do we need to prep to think about going to Veed? Munginator: build up those butt callouses, stock up on vitamin I and watch for cheap flights to Denver.

Although Grugfest IS a cool name, after waking up, I'm thinking I should have titled this thread the Road to Zanzibar, since I'm probably more likely to get to Zanzibar than to get my ass up Lucille. Still, I'm gonna give it a try this year. Hankster, I'll give you a yell. Getting someone to try it with you is half the battle since I don't believe in employing a fellow climber merely as a belayer.
Now I ask myself, what's the worst thing that could happen? Right away this one comes to mind... not being able to climb the .10b sandbag first pitch, Best of the Blues. Oh well, my oatmeal's ready now.
