Made it home about 7:45 pm from the hang. That's about 12 hours from hammock to home. Fast trip home and made good time.
I had a great time on the hang. I want to thank Out'N'Back and Food for...

I just went out to move some gear. I have a nice full rainbow in the west, the direction that we will head in a few minutes. That must be a good sign for a golden hang.

Sorry you can't make it Tex, work sucks in it interferes with hiking and hanging.
Gear is packed and we will be hitting the road very soon. I am looking forward to meeting everyone and having a...

I missed the pot luck notice.:scared: That would be great, they are a lot of fun at other hangs I have been to. If we are doing it I will bring my famous cole slaw. We leave tomorrow morning :)...

Well I'll let you try it but you may not get to stay long.:laugh:

Just finished a Jerry chair for the trip. Nice sit,:)

That should kick the snow of of the trail.:)

Will also have a Coleman stove and also a small gas grill until the truck is moved on Friday.
Need to start the serious packing and collection of gear today.
Depart Wednesday morning. :)

Sounds like my wood burning stove, and others don't fit. Maybe it is a don't ask and don't tell on the trail stove.:rolleyes:

Tex, the dog is fine with me. Can she carry my pack?:rolleyes:
I have a friend that has three lamas that he hikes with. All he needs to carry is a lead strap. Each lama can carry about 75 lbs. ...

Our Platte river and Missouri rivers are flooding not, that rapid snow melt not going to help. But it good to clear the trail for our hike. I looking forward to being back on the trail in the...

I got some cheep snowshoes from Sportsman Guide last winter and never used them. This might be my chance to use them. Hiking through a bunch of snow on the trail might be a new and interesting...

I may just bring left over construction material. I've got some left over cedar and redwood after the patio project that should be done by then.

I can put some firewood in the truck. That is if we can use it. What are the regulations on out of state firewood from Nebraska?
Can cutoffs from kiln dried construction lumber be imported?
If...

It's never to late to join a group hang. :D

It would be great if you could meet up with us. I would like to meet the famous Cannibal.:scared::cool:

I'm 63 and Dennis is 67, to figure into the average. That might raise it a bit.

I would like to take the truck to Frisco on Friday, so that it is there at the end of the hike. Plan to hike out that last morning and hit the road for the nine hour drive home.
We ma bring...

I just reserved site #12 at Jefferson Lake Campground for July 6, 7 & 8. Dennis will also be with me for another person to the list. We will arrive in the evening of July 6.

If I drive my truck it is a crew cab that will seat six. It should help with the transportaion of gear and hhikers.

I would rather stay with the original dates. We may have problems with the campground filling up on the weekend and I would rather avoid that.

Sounds like water should be available everywhere.:D

What are the chances that the Jefferson Campground will have a lot of camper during the week? I'm thinking that we will arrive on July 6 for a couple of days of adjustment to the elevation and day...

I usually need lots of water. A couple years ago I was day hiking with a couple of friends. The hike was from about nine in the morning till mid afternoon about 3. Ted said that he would take a...

I will be driving to the hang. Dennis will also be going from here. My wife said that she wanted to go but not hike. I don't know about Dennis's wife either. So I don't know of the time or what...

If you get there that will make three from Nebraska at the hang. That would be great.

That would be great.:D What are you going to cook for the group? That 16" will fix lots of grub.
Actually if I truck camp at Lake Jefferson I may bring it. It just will not fit in the pack.
I...

I will stay with the slow group that likes to eat and enjoy the company. However, I'm not bringing the dutch oven.:scared:

I just might try to make this hike and hang. I have not been on the CDT for a couple of years. It will depend on if I can develop some trail legs and lungs by then. It would be some great...
