Dry year...that will be a change....I think that of the approx 6 time I have attended, it has rained all but one. The first year the fall hang was held was the worse for rain as we had a frog strangler of a rain storm Sunday morning. Was nice and dry until I had to take down all the hammock gear. Gumbo's daughter was in a tent and got flooded...got a trail name of Soggy Bottoms.

I like Dutch bling....maybe Dutch will deliver the bling.

Seems there is still, or is more, heightened bear activity in the area. Enough to prompt a "warning" and recommend avoiding the area. LINK and LINK

u.w.

Guess I am going to have to invest in a couple of Blue Tick hounds. I just hate having to chase after those suckers once they get on a trail.

Alternatively, we will ensure that all food is stored properly at the camping area. Preferably in the oldest vehicle on site.

We're not staying at a shelter and will probably have a fire burning all night to some extent. I don't think there is a problem here.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again. It's been awhile. Rockdawg, your kitchen helper is ready. Slowhike, how's Big Blue faring these days? Hickery, bring some Kashi Bars for the bears. Gray Jay, can't wait to spend some time with you. See ya'll soon.

Good to hear from you brother!
It'll be really good to spend some camp time with you!

Big Blue bit the dust at a winter hang there a while back.
Hickery has what we like to call SOB... Son Of Blue.
He has used it at a winter hang also and says it has gained about 10lbs in Gorilla Tape!
