Itinerant Air-Cooled

First camp in a while! Haven't been posting much either.

The Big Bottom Option: Take 224 past Ripplebrook to FS46. 15 miles or so, turn right onto 4650 and cross a narrow bridge over the Clackamas. This bridge is just before the 4660 jct. It is new and very obvious. The railing has a big dent from a tree falling on it. Take the straight (curve to the left) gravel road 4651, the other way is ripped up. Go about 2 miles down this narrow but decent road. Camp is on the road on the left hand side, just before the road begins a big climb. You can't miss it. It is just before you get to Kansas Creek.

Mmmm, are there ticks?

Nope no ticks. Too cold/wet/oldgrowthy.

I think I can. I'll know more after Friday.

we’ll see how the van runs by then, i may be down for a night.

I'm interested hmmmmmmmmmmm

Vista, it would be great to have you join us.

YES it would.
Hey the weather is lookin pretty good for the camp weekend...sunny and warm. The odds are in our favor, it has been Feb. for rainy weeks now.

I will most likely be rolling in Thurs night after work. Eva will be with me, it has been a while. She is so tall now, I hope we both fit in the bus bed.
Already excited tho I have done nothing to prepare...

I am packed and pointed down the driveway.
Dentist at 2:00 Thursday and planning to leave the house at 3:00 with spittle drooling off my chin.
Vista, what are you thinking?
Westy78, is that Raby CS up for another trip?
Chachi, I’ll have an icy cold beverage waiting even if you show up at 7:00 am.

I'm out for this one unfortunately. House goes on the market Friday and I need to be around if there's an offer. Maybe I'll take a drive up for the day.

All packed! See you out there. Hope to roll in before dark tomorrow.

Think it will melt by tomorrow? Probably...watch for the orange hubcap, we may wind up someplace unplanned. Mike you may be getting out there first, good luck.
According to this, there is only 4" on the road on the way in, don't think it will be an issue.
