Lots of snow this weekend. Good news to keep fire bans from messing up the rendezvous.

FYI, I just had a week long seminar scheduled that would interfere with my ability to make it that weekend. Unless it falls through I won't be able to make it.

Good with the rain - am enthusiastic about his gathering and planning for a great time with fine folks. Does anyone have enough drag with the head guy to have this thread become a sticky ??

Not yet Paul -- I've Pm'ed a couple of times and so has KC -- You want to give it a try? Maybe RickBin recognizes your gravitas...

I'm leaving tomorrow and will be gone for a couple of weeks. When I get back let's crank up the activity on this activity and start the final planning.

I'm baaack.
The gathering will be held in about five weeks. Time to start talking about gear and food coordination.
I'll be camping in my little travel trailer as usual. I'll also bring a 2-man dome tent so there will be extra sleeping room.
I can bring a 15'x 20' wall tent with wood burner stove. It's a lot easier to setup with three people so could use some help Friday afternoon before the biggest gaggle of people arrive.
Kevin are you coming? How's your back? I sure enjoyed those hot sweet rolls that you baked a couple of years ago.
I can also bring two 2-burner stoves, propane, coolers, tables, pots, pans, heaters, lanterns, a full camp setup, etc.
Paul (CCCC) are you coming? Can you bring the stuff for the prairie dog shoot?
We need a few good sturdy shooting tables.
We can always use extra lanterns and stoves.
Can someone bring a folding canopy?
Each person should bring the following items: Folding Chair (maybe 2 - there never seems to be enough) Water (5 gallons - there's no convenient source close) Snacks (personal & some to share with the group) Drinks (coffee, cocoa, soft drinks, orange juice, beer, etc.) Firewood (one bundle or box per person should be enough). Tent or Trailer Sleeping Bag & Ground Pad Firearm of choice for the prairie dog shoot. Lies err ahh stories for the campfire.
Let's have a pot luck dinner Friday might. Everyone please bring a food item to share with 8 people.
On Saturday morning, I'll cook biscuits & gravy and eggs for the entire group. Is there anyone who wants to offer venison sausage or something similar?
On Saturday evening, I'll offer that burrito bar that I have had at previous gatherings.
We need food and cooks for Sunday morning breakfast. Any volunteers for that?
There are some pretty good places for 4-wheeling close to the camp.
The closest fishing is in Tarryall Reservoir.

I just got back tonight from a weekend turkey hunting. No birds but a good time walking in the woods.
I've got a 16-foot GP small tent I plan to bring that has a wood stove in it. It has lots of room so if anyone needs a place to bed down, I'll have extra room.
I'll bring some elk chili for the potluck and can bring breakfast for Sunday morning.

Looking good for the family and I making it, not sure if we will be bringing the travel trailer or the tent. Will definitely have something to contribute to the potluck. Wife may want to bring up the Rubicon for some four wheeling!

China Wall Trail is near the campsite - If you like to really test the suspension. You got lockers?
