Hope to be there, depends on funds. 224 is still closed, no Pot Ck. though I'm kinda sick of that place...too much poop lyin around.
It would be cool to camp somewhere around Breitenbush! Depends on the weather too.
19-22nd something like that?

Once again, I'd love to make an appearance, but family calls. The 21st marks one year since my mom was returned to the earth. Gotta be there for my folks.

I will talk you guys into a full-on snow camp this winter though....

Been working down here building food carts, and just spent three weeks in Humboldt, doing seasonal humboldty things. I even ended up within 100 ft of aircooledchris' house, but it was midnite on a monday, so I didn't bother him.

good call on a Monday, but if your ever here for seasonal work in the future - ping me if your down from the hills and want to grab a few at the pub.

there's a strong chance ill be hosting a bus campout in Humboldt on Memorial day weekend, so there may be another opportunity before next harvest.

Or, if it rains in lower elevations, do we ditch the river and head up and inland?

Friday Night Rain and snow showers likely. Cloudy, with a low around 29.

IMPORTANT please read!
This has been postponed. Don't go out there, no one will greet you in the expected Pineapple Express rain system heading our way, warm and billions of gallons of rain.
Randy was suppost to post this due to the fact he wanked out due to the fact his Ma is in town. In light of the expected weather I would have bailed anyway. Maybe. :shaking:
What about Dec. 26-29? Although I have to verify my own availability, you see.
Found a couple of abandoned trails up there too, looking at old maps. 46 Rd. took out the main one.
