The wife and I were planning out the next two months and she asked how many other women would be there. What do I tell her?

Cheryl will be there.
We had about 15 women in Quemado but usually around 5 at Tonto.
The guys aren't afeared to haul their womens and such to NM as they are AZ.

Has more to do with the ambient temperature and abundant sunshine, not to mention the more refined gentry.

Kent I was surprised at the number of women and children at Quemado in 2015, but I could see that they had a fun time.

That's how we promote it, women and kid friendly.
And as far as I can tell the largest gathering from this site and has been almost from the beginning.
The Winter one usually isn't as big though we've had 40+ at Greg's. Summer is much easier attending with the kids out of school and such.

When my wife is at these gatherings, she seems to radiate plenty of sunshine and her ambient temp ain't bad at all - but she's still looking for the refined gentry.
