Fall Bash Inquiry 12 Years, 3 Months ago
|
|
|
OK, there's been some talk about having a some sort of fall bash, or gathering. I think we should do it, even if only a handful of folks show up.
So, since someone has to get the ball rolling and since fall is just around the corner, I propose we "count noses" and get a preliminary idea of who would actually be interested and likely show up, at which location, and which weekend.
I propose that we keep it informal, minimal organization, except for setting a definite time and place, and stating that there will be a pot luck Saturday night. People just show up who want to, and make all their own arrangements.
My vote is for: Davis Lake, either the first or second weekend of October (weekend to include Friday).
What say you????????

Charlie:
I will call Beckworth Ranger district to make sure, but I believe Lightning Tree will still be open. Bathrooms, but maybe no water. Will find out and post.

Didn't have to call. According to reserveusa.com, the closing dates for both Grasshopper and Lightning Tree are Oct. 15. don't know about making reservations (usually they don't bother when the season is waning), but the campground is open and we could gather up!!

charlie:
they took a lot of tree out of Grizzly and Grasshopper, but the roads were not changed. so, should be easier to navigate with a long trailer. Lightning Tree is easier to get big rigs in and out of.

I'd like to come up. Probably take a 5 day weekend. Which side of the first week would be good?

I'll try to make it. And like Jim, I'll probably arrive a day or two early or stay a day or two after the weekend. When is this debacle? October 6-7 or 13-14?
Although, the egg hatch might be going strong on the LSac, so I might hit that before or after.

"Rivers course through my dreams, rivers cold and fast, rivers well-known and rivers nameless, rivers that seem like ribbons of blue water twisting through wide valleys, narrow rivers folded in layers of darkening shadow, rivers that have eroded down deep in a mountain's belly, sculpted the land, peeled back the planet's history exposing the texture of time itself."
— Harry Middleton (Rivers of Memory)
"Each night as I haul myself onto the back of county garbage truck no. 2, there is a familiar wind, some thread of moonglow or starlight, a splatter of dark rain on my skin, something that stirs my memory, and again, if even for a brief moment, I am on some mountain river, some stretch of bright water, full of possibilities, including the possibility of trout, perhaps one that, when hooked, will haul me in and out of time, in and out of life's mysterious and frightening, wondrous and incomprehensible continuum, even to the edges of the universe." -- Harry Middleton

John,
so far, charlie, carpy and I agreed to first weekend (Oct 6-7). Sounds like Jims and Oldtrout can do that weekend also.
Guess that could change as we hear from more folks If the other weekend is a better choice. However, later we schedule it, greater likelihood of weather possibly a problem.
How about for now, we assume Oct 6-7 unless there is a groundswell for the 13-14th??
