Cool guys!

Keep it coming and after Dennis scouts out the exact location monday we will firm it all up.

We've been averaging 40+ but may not have that many on short notice, but there looks to be plenty coming already and more will be chiming in.

Prepare for a good time.

Heard from Ken - he got his courage up enough to be riding down with me. I'll be looking into accommodations.

I suggest we make a rule that Dennis cannot compete in the shooting event. cool

Hope Tom and Ron won't be able to make it cool cool.

ah tom, darby is just being darby. I am a kinder and gentler person this year, and trying to resist those normal temptations that would lead me astray. One could ask if darby can actually make it down that far. Even I know the right kind of fuel to put in MY truck.

this is a little off topic, well maybe not. But in the 1800's the calvary trapped a bunch of indians in a cave up near that area, and shot them all. I have always been interested in going to that cave. I believe you need a boat to cross to where it's at. Anybody been there and know how to find it?

I've read that story too, didn't know that the actual location was known. I'd like to tag along for that.

I'm interested! Especially if I can get out of Turkey in time.

I'm in PA right now, had to make a unscheduled flight early wednesday morning. Funeral is Saturday and I should catch a flight back on Monday.

Hard telling if I'll be able to make it or not, but I know I'd sure like to see you folks.

But what the hell, mudhen and dennis want to do something, so at least us three... plus whoever else.

February 20/21/22... Tonto basin area, dispersed camping(meaning out in the desert no campground)... to be determined by Dennis scouting next week.

Close to the same area as last year but not at the lake.

Camping, shooting, eating and possibly drinking... you know...

All invited, be there or be square.

I'll have Saturday dinner and sunday breakfast, Dennis will have Friday dinner and Ben burritos saturday morning.

Is there anything for a non-drinker to do at these gatherings?

Fetch drinks for the drinkers?


HA! Now that's an idea!

I suppose the weather situation will be mostly dry so what temperature should we be expecting?


The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

It is accessible only by boat on Canyon lake.

Summertime!

I haven't seen seventy degrees for a loooong time!

Ron,
I read an old book called "on the border with Crook" they talk about something like that with the Apaches. Could that be the same cave? I will have to go back and read that part again. It was written by John Burke who was one of Crooks junior officers and claims to have been with Crook through most of his campaigns against the indians.
