Somehow missed this post. My IAC emails don't always reach my inbox for some reason, thanks Tristessa for the FB tag.
My engine is very tired but would love to get out.

Tell me where and when to be and I'll be there. Promise. Thursday morning is when I can depart Portland Metro area. Or Friday. Just have to be in Spokane by Sunday evening.

Looks like Thursday is the great meeting day? Or possibly Wed as some hinted at. I will already be out there. Colin ya gonna make it?

Oh yeah directions! I'd go thru the Clackamas (you can also get there via US26):
I205 South to HWY 224 exit, take it SE towards Estacada.
Stay on 224 until Ripplebrook, 2 way JCT just beyond
Right/East on FS46, 15 miles or so
Left onto FS42
Left on FS141
Summit Lk will be obvious

If the camp is full or full of spiders just continue down 141, there is a camp about a mile down.

I loved Summit Lake. This will be a good choice. Bring your flotation devices. Nice floating around to be had here. I might even bring the Zip line again...
I will likely be landing in the dark per the usual...though I will not be sporting a suit and tie when I show up.
Anyone interested in a later Wednesday evening departure (9ish) let me know (I work that day) I will be heading back Friday evening.

I am looking forward to getting out there and meeting more bus folk.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

Thursday AM works for me. If anyone wants to caravan from Mi Casa and doesn't know where that is, PM me.

Addendum: Aiming for an 09:00ish departure

Should be easy to find. If we are lucky, we can drive past the wooden posts to a better camp further in.
I will be getting in Wed afternoon most likely, have to head back to Estacada for a kid drop-off, then back out again.
I will hopefully see a few of you out there, happy trails and safe travels.

I won't be there much past earlyish Saturday morning, but I think other peeps are hanging out through Sunday at least.
