    Fairly easy with just one spot as you are near the campsite. The trail will round the end of a small pond, manmade ditch really, and seem to join the road. Look back to your right and you will see the trail reenters the woods and proceeds north along the edge of the pond/ditch. It is where the photo icon is in the Google Earth shot due south of the campsite. Not sure about the water but after the wet summer there will be water somewhere.

    Not sure if it's necessary, but I'll have copies of the reservation on the windshield of my truck. It's a white Nissan Frontier. Just take one and place it, in view on your dash, in case the rangers check. I should be there around noon tomorrow.

    Looking for someone size L, 36-39, that will be out this weekend. I have a pair of Colombia Backcast convertible pants. Worn one weekend at the Nov. hang. Other than that they are new. Price is right, free. Let me know if I need to bring them. The problem for me is that they don't have a fly.

    Loaded except steak and egg. Looking like a good size group.

    Missing another great hang with my dear friends. Got a fish on the line to sell my house & will be trying negotiate a deal this weekend. Maybe I should advertise it as a Black Friday Sale! LOL
