Itinerant Air-Cooled

well---in that case I will be able to go if those dates are correct. we will see. :)..

Bob might try and change it, but those are the dates I'm going to be out there .. heading out the 8th after work, coming back late Saturday or crack-o-dawn Sunday becaise I've gotta be at work by 10.

Only chance I've got to get out in the woods & go camping until September.

I can go for those dates myself! For now I actually see no conflicts, woohoo!

Wish I could make this. I'll be in Northern Cal that weekend... sigh.

Bummer.

Whereabouts in NorCal?

A little festival called Dead on the Creek

I changed the dates on the title btw.
Picked up some gut-funny business at Linney but I'm keepin it together, nothing like dysentery in the woods.
See you out there, depending on who you turn out to be...

If you're coming from the Willamette Valley, do this:
OR 224 thru Estacada, past Ripplebrook.
LEFT on 57
Just BEFORE 57 turns to gravel -
LEFT on 58
Climb like a mofo to 4610 at High Rock.
LEFT on 4610, climb more (don't go RIGHT - this is 58 heading east)
look for Abbot Road sign on dirt road heading LEFT at crest of hill. Be very very careful on Abbot, steep narrow and rocky with a dramatic dropoff.
It's about 3 miles to the camp. Once you pass thru the BOULDER ROAD then you're almost there. Camp is on your right.

If you're coming from the Zigzag area, do this:
US26 to 42 to 58, RIGHT/STRAIGHT on 4610 (then follow same as above)

Left on 57 past Ripplebrook?

I thought that road was washed out/closed...?

It reopened about two weeks ago.

Cool, good to know.

You coming?

Can't wait!
I think Don is out due to family issues.

I'm flying solo this trip! Maybe I'll even get some peace.
Man I gotta get packin'.
