I'm going to be spending a week up in the Alpine Loop / American Basin / Lake City area next month and wanted to get a feel for the OC climiate up there. I just picked up a Serpa II to use for the trip, and am excited about the opportunity, but was just looking for some input from people who have carried in the area. I guess I am mainly concerned about when we spend time in Lake City. I know to watch for posted signs before entering business, etc. Thanks for anything info you can provide.
Lake City is a tiny place. Most small towns in Colorado don't have a police force -- the County Sheriff is the law. In general, Sheriff's offices seem to be OK with open carry, especially the rural ones.
There are no ammo restrictions in Colorado.
http://www.rmgo.org/ (Rocky Mountain Gunowners' Assn) is a good reference for Colorado law.
In short, I wouldn't hesitate to carry when you're here.
