Hey Pat, like butter on toast, I will be there! Do you have some new toys to tease me with. I may be showing up with some NTN tele stuff. I'm off work Sunday morning till Thursday morning and should be at the camp spot or Hood River early Sunday afternoon or so. My plans are pretty open really. If nobody shows up I might just ski a day then head to the Oregon coast for a day/night. Whats Natty up to?
jf
Cool. Gotta call the Natster. I'm just winging it, as usual. I'll bring a tent and sleep wherever. I gotta make sure those boards have left Suisse...
I should have some 169s, 179s, 186s, 188s and 192s for everyone to play with, too.
Thinking long and hard about making the drive down from Canuckistan, have to take the day off though, we don't celebrate the 4th... ;)

I'm leaving the night of the 3rd and coming back night of the 4th unless I get the 3rd and 5th off, fat chance:cussing: If you drive down to Bellingham we could carpool. You're in N. Van aren't you?
Yeah, I think Gonads is gonna come down from whis and we're gonna head down, need to give her a ring. We should totally organize some sorta carpool thing, I'll shoot ya a pm
Hmmm. I wonder if the Ashean team can make it? I'll look into it. I think I have a way to pay for the gas (my father in-law needs steel siding for his house that is made and sold ONLY in a place just south of Olympia.) The only thing that may stop us is work schedules.
Sac up Ash, I will be there. Driving all the way from PA to be there. Work is over rated anyways.....:D
I'm leaving for Idaho in a few hours so if I don't answer your pm right away thats why. I can usually get computer access a few times during the week to check on stuff. I'll be back next Sunday night, so you'll hear from me then if not sooner.Quote:

I dunno about the 4th proper but it's looking likely that I'll be down there from the 8th to the 11th.
I am in like Flynn. Any more info on the dates folks are going to be showing up?
Great to see folks stepping up. I've paided for spot #2 sunday, monday and tuesday nights at Still Creek Campground and there is plenty of room. Bring some firewood so Splat can relax and not take to foraging for sticks. Should be fun.
JF
It sounds like a lot of fun. What kind of gear are you guys thinking of taking up? are you skinning or boot packing? Do you think it would be chill to climb in alpine boots?
I climbed it several years ago but didnt have skis and had all sorts of gear.
There will be lift served skiing...
One can boot/skin up above Palmer for more snow, although the mountain is looking pretty thin from town (I haven't been up in awhile)
Anybody here up for a little NF action? I'm heading to Snow Dome one (or both) of the two weekends on either side of the fourth.
I'm very interested Camilo
I'll post plans here then.
Hmm, looks like I might not be able to make it. Maybe a week earlier/later?
ptavv
unexceptable
try again
I will be there! should be fun. can we ski bumps? I may show up in my mountaineering gear. I have been lost in the mountains for the last two weeks, my new summer activity. climbing is not as fun as skiing that is forsure!!!

That one had the nastiest stinger I've had in a while, especially since the snow was kinda hard. :frown:Quote:

I might be able to swing it as a day trip from Seattle... Mapquest says 4.5 hrs to timberline via Portland, think this is about right?

All of a sudden, I may have this weekend to myself, meaning I'm free to come and hang out. And since I've been a bad friend and haven't been back to OR to visit since I moved out three years ago (GAWD, has it been that long?), mebbie I'll do a little Bend-Hood-Cascade volcano trip.
I guess it's coming up pretty fast, eh? Hmm, I'll have to look into this...
Do it Yoss
I'll be pulling into the campsite Sunday afternoon. Should be good times and looks like there will be some newcomers as well.
JF
Still chewing through the ropes.
Shit's been going sideways for me, but I'm aiming for it.
If it all works out, I'll land in your campsite Sunday evening with a friend, Fieldys. That cool? We can help with rent.
It's all too tenuous to reserve a spot.
