Today’s Elk Valley hike comes with an election year twist. From the pictures below, see if you can be the first to guess the particular type of abandoned farm implement and its relation to the 2024 election. Extra credit if you have ever used one yourself.
You are here: To get to Elk Valley, follow Douglas County Route 5 heading south until you can’t go any further and the road veers west steeply uphill.
Looking north from DC-5 you see the edge of Roxborough. The view south, it’s all horse farms as far as the eye can see.
Looking east from DC-5 you see Swallowtail Ridge and the bluest of blue skies. The road west is more than a bit steep, with one small ray of afternoon sunshine.

And now the moment we’ve all been waiting for: What’s this abandoned farm implement? And what does it have to do with the 2024 election?
Election year twist: Don’t let flying horse manure hit your head!
The only machine that kicks the sh*t out of itself.
I have never used one. All such spreading I have done is metaphorical. I guess I’m a politician
