    AL Sipsey Hangout 3/13-3/15

    Hey everyone,

    We need to get our plans made for the second Sipsey hangout next weekend!

    I plan to be there sometime on Friday afternoon (2pm timeframe), and will stay until Sunday. Everyone is welcome to join me on Friday, but if you can't make it we will schedule another meetup on Saturday too.

    There are a whole range of possible destinations. In the other trip report thread, places mentioned were the largest bluff shelters in Bankhead, or ShangriLa Falls, or Collier Creek Falls. Of course there are even more options.

    What does everyone want to see? Want to do bushwhacking or trail walking? How much of either?

    Just thought that I would toss a possible destination in the hat, White Creek Falls.

    I can't make it, but If you get to some of these places mentioned above, somebody be sure to mark some GPS waypoints/coordinates to make it easier for me to find them later. Unless they are at obvious places on a map.

    I plan on being there late Friday evening, around 9 or 10 pm. Let's find out who's going, then we can figure out where, who's in?

    I just got back from Bankhead and the ticks and mosquitoes where all over me this weekend. We may need to stick with the main trails this weekend if it stays hot this week. Snakes will be out in full force! Southmark what is white creek falls near on the Sipsey map? I will try to get with Chemok tomorrow and get his pictures of our trip and of Sougahoagdee falls and post them. Thomas

    As much as I'd like to head up that way, I may not be able to make it. I'll know more as the week progresses....
