Good stuff CB! I'm so glad you made it!

I must say, I was blue when it was time to leave.
There were six of us that stayed Sunday night, Hickery, Home Run, Rock Dawg, Ham Mike, Zak & myself.

Sun afternoon, Hickery, Home Run & myself went up to the visitors center & looked around, then hiked the 1.2 mile loop Pinicale trail there to get some nice views of the park from up high.

I was the last one in line as we drove out Mon. I stopped by the Rangers office, then drove back up to the over look & stayed there a while.
It was hard to leave & hard to say good bye.

I know that it was hard leaving since it was for us also. Going back to work was not fun.

I had a great time! Great to see some old friends and make some new ones! Thanks to those who helped me with my gear, all the words of encouragement as I continue rehabing, and all those who cooked up what might be one of the best meals I've ever had at one of these events!

Thanks for the pictures and videos, it was great seeing you again.

I counted 6 stands in use and one tent. Lots of places left to hang but the problem was parking.

Indeed. But we managed.
If we have that big of a group signed up next year, well talk more about that in advance.

Thank you to everyone who organized the hang and also to everyone who was there for making it fun. It was great to chill out and have good conversations and good food and good hanging for the weekend.

Of course it is no surprise to anyone there but the generosity of the group who organized and cooked and made it happen always brings a smile to my face! Also the overall generosity of those who attended to raise that much money for the park is inspiring!!

Until next time....

take care everybody
