I'm for sure coming unless hell freezes over. Let me know if you need anything.

We are going to be at 8000' gang. And since I was planing on being there today what say the masses? I am going to try and PM everyone on the list and figure it out. Decision needs to be made by noon today. Kind of hard to clean up with snow on the ground.

It is that time of year. Anything past the 1st of OCT is a crapshoot. And I would be OK. I could stay till wed. The trailer is packed and ready. I just see us getting up there and then getting snowed in sat night.

Right now I am leaning to killing all of friday/sat and let's see what is on the ground come sunday morning. If it is fine then we can have a clean up, if not then nobody got caught. The risk assessment side of me says that this should be put on hold. I will go ahead and think about this for a few hours.

I was planning on heading over for Friday afternoon, spend the night, shoot Saturday then head back Saturday afternoon - (got my own camping gear and food stuff)
If this is called off for today then I might be able to come over around noon Sunday if it's still on and if people show up.
I'll shoot a PM to get on the group contact list.

Cofi I think that is the best plan for now. Take a look gang and if it is clear on Sunday we will try and have a short clean up. I am going to call this. We will not have anything going Friday or Sat.

Now if anyone wants to go on there own knock yourself out. I just think that with what I know about early fall and late spring weather it is better to err on the side of caution.

Friggin Snow!

Maybe check the conditions tomorrow morning and then decide? Not looking pretty though.

DAMN! My mother in law is in town. This is taking away my excuse to get the hell out of dodge on Saturday. Now I have to adjust fire, and release the creative thinking penguin from its cage.
