Weekend Cheesebox Trip

[Iceaxe]

Guess we have to do this here because I don't have everyones email address and folks keep PMing me the same questions.....

So what is the deal? Here is how I hear things...

Ice, Kazak and Itchey are riding down together. I think we have this handled.

We are meeting Rockgremlin and ??? at the soldier's grave Friday evening..

Itchy is bringing dinner Saturday night? Jumbalya :slobber:

Doing Cheesebox on Saturday and the Black Hole on Sunday.

I don't think we will need wetsuits but if you have a shortie toss it in. You will need a lunch both days. Don't plan on a big breakfest because I plan on being up and rolling pretty early both days. (pulling out of camp about 7ish).

Any questions? any comments? anything?

:rockon:

[Alex]

Should I bring the Pull Ups or Little Swimmers dipers? :haha:

I will get the drinks, Itchy what "special" drinks do you want?

And what do you guys want for non-alcoholic drinks?

Are the fires allowed there? Should I bring wood?

What gloves better: biking no finger ones or construction leather gloves?

[icthys]

Sounds good to me.

Bring drinks of your choice for dinner Saturday. I like Henry Weinhardt's root beer if anyone cares!

[Iceaxe]

Yes, fires are allowed. Wood is nice.

Gloves are for those who don't know what the hell they are doing. You won't need them cause Ya'll will have me :haha:

Bring a chair.

:popcorn:

[Iceaxe]

Actually should probably be some Gatorade and water in the cooler also.... carbonated drinks are bad for hydrating.

:popcorn:

[rockgremlin]

Yup. That's exactly how I envisioned it Ice...thanks for finalizing. I will be with two other dudes from Monticello, both are very strong hikers.

I have used both fingerless and full fingered gloves. I think full fingered are better for canyons where a lot of ropework is required. Bring your fingerless ones for this trip.

I'm gonna bring a shorty. I get cold quick. Your Mileage May vary.

I checked the weather report for this weekend for Fry Canyon. Looks really good. Should be mostly clear and hot. :2thumbs:

[Alex]

Beer is carbonated.... what are you saying???? :frustrated:

I will bring gatorade and a 5 gallon round water thingy. I will bring firewood as well

[Iceaxe]

And Rockgremlin is bringing the rope?

Everyone should be packed and ready to roll the night before.

[Alex]

So meet at your place at 4PM then, Shane? So we can leave at 4:30pm and try to beat the traffic...

[Iceaxe]

Be at my house at 4:30. I have to work.

[rockgremlin]

I'm bringing a 60m Imlay rope. Feel free to bring something else if you feel the need.

[Iceaxe]

The best ropes are always some elses ropes..... :haha:

[utidcapaco]

Hey Ice. . . I know you will, but be sure to post a trip report, especially for the Black Hole. I hope to be in both canyons in a month or so. Thanks much, and have fun! :naughty:

[Iceaxe]

What happens on the trail stays on the trail! :lol8:



Just kiddin'.... hopefully we will have a bunch of pictures, video and bullshit to feed ya.

:nod:

Are the fires allowed there? Should I bring wood?


Ummm, it's August in the desert... Not sure a fire is going to be all that welcome after a day in the hot sun...

You might want some bug spray, there were a few out last weekend.

The feller makes a good point.... maybe no wood? What's Itchy need to cook?

White Canyon gets really bad black gnats about June. I was/am hoping they are gone by now.

I was planning on bringing some charcoal and I'm even going to give my single burner butane stove a try and see how hot it'll get the oven.

[Alex]

Itchy I have a Coleman two prop stove which works great for outdoors cooking. I also have an open fire grill with a fire pan I can bring as well. I use it to cook steaks and such. Let me know if you want me to bring any of those.
