Then hike the nct back to the red bridge by Sunday afternoon. Only problem is i need to talk some one into shuttling.... if there was a trip maybe i could sneek in some how.

    And i think Wildcrafter is planning a trip there the weekend of the 7th.
    I can't pull off this weekend and prolly the 7th too... work gets in the way yet again.
    Good luck,

    I'm drawn to the open country. Its where the world makes the most sense. When I put myself out there I always return with something new.

    There is nothing more relaxing than a float on a river and a waterside campsite
