My midnight stroll was nice and I'm glad I was able to finally make it...
I ended up chatting with a fella that has been there from AZ. I've decided against going to the area this trip due to several factors. Mainly with the short time I will have to work with I can't risk...
I guess I should have mentioned that I have been looking at photos of the area and observed the same as you te-wa. Honestly I figure if I can get to one tree with the car(suv) close enough I had...
Anyone on here been to the Toroweap/Tuweep area of the Grand Canyon NP?

Just call me Col. Forbin! I'd rather think of myself as him.

Ummm, I got to get something off my chest......
The more I go back and watch that video the more I'm beginning to wonder if, not only did the double mossy tree make it rain, but I'm wondering if...
I've found that life is a lot more fun to live when you act like a doof! I have to play the "professional" far too much that being a doof is a release! :D
:D
Yea I was sweating it a little bit more than a let on at the time. :lol:
Actually we had to go on a hunt hunt for some gas 1st because I "forgot" to fill up before we headed up the mountain. We made it with 9 miles to spare! :lol:

Good Food! Ummm HUH
I can carry a tune with my snoring!
Great video brother! Awesome trip and I can't wait to go back and do it again!
Well we got a little wet hiking down the C. Cove Trail. It started raining just before we got to the river but we got our tarps set up just as the harder rains started to fall. The downpour during...

Wait until you all get to see the Double Mossy Tree! :D
I don't have the time to write up a full report so I'm going to just let this one picture (well it's actually several pictures stitched together) do the reporting for me. I did my best with the...

:D Well if it makes ya'll (those of you that know how bad that climb is) feel any better. I almost puked about 1 1/2 miles into it :scared: :lol:
Thanks for the kind words on the photos.
Mod, I messed up and meant to put this in the Trip Report Forum. Please move. Sorry!
This past weekend I took off a little later than I had intended on Friday to make a short, but yet strenuous hike up the AT from the NOC to Wesser Bald. My wife had surprisingly said to me earlier in...
Lori has some really great work Salty
sounds scary!
email the pics from your phone to your email address. Save them as jpegs to your PC then upload them. I know I'm not the only one that would like to see them :scared:
Opie, I'm sending Pm
Man that's some beautiful country! Looks like one heck of a trip!
Your picture below doesn't look like any deer or elk rubs I've ever seen. I don't think either of those are the culprit here.
I know I saw that :cursing: Dang it Ken!
You got to be on your toes to get some stuff around here :D
If anyone has a MacCat Deluxe tarp they are thinking of getting rid of please PM me. Thanks!
Scott
go to a fishing tackle store.
I found one at the local Sportsmans Warehouse
Redden Marine!
I ordered some just this past Thursday and it arrived at the door earlier today via USPS! You can't beat that quick service! :D
And a big PLUS if you use: hammockforum

I tied up 3 of these after doing a soft shackle this evening. These were a bit more challenging than the soft shackle however they weren't all that difficult.
Still though I'll say that my finger...

Heck yea I'd love to do something like that Hawk eye. I'd love to make the Forum hang but that week/weekend is BAD for me. My daughters birthday is the 25th so I'm always going to be unavailable...
I've got plenty of batteries and well for me it's CF cards. I'm a nut and actually carry a very "not for hiking" camera. I'm a Canon guy myself so that's what I tote but I also usually carry 2 lenses...
As long as he doesn't fall and hurt something again then we'll be just fine. :D
