Zion Bogleyfest - June 26-28 09' A Sucess! :)

[abirken]

You can take Kristen off the wait list for Spry on Saturday b/c she will be doing Subway with my group. Also so Kristen and I can do a canyon together, can you please change our Sunday canyon to Pinecreek and Keyhole. We may just do one canyon and then head out since we have a long drive home. Thanks!! :2thumbs:

[Randi]

It must just be me all confused then. :haha: Thanks Tom!

Everyone that wanted has been added to Boundary (I hope) :nod:
..and the other canyons that were requested.

We are still sort of confused on the Subway and Das Boot trip so everyone please get with Randi and unconfuse this one!


Help Tanya!!!!

Please add my daughter Sarah to Sunday Mystery since there is one spot open now that Alison isn't going.

Please put her with Tom Jones for Friday's trip (there is room on Tom's Spry trip and he would she knows him already). I will be in Imlay on Friday!

I hope there wil lbe a spot for her on Subway!!!!!!
If not, I will figure something out! :mrgreen:

[tanya]

I think I have everyone where I need them. Randi get with Bo about taking your daughter with you. There might be a way as long as there are enough permits.

I am thinking we should get at least one more Saturday trip going since that is the busiest day... just in case more sign up to go?

[shaggy125]

Randi, I'm still waiting to hear from our scheduling lady but I'm guessing I will be out and your daughter can take my permit. I'll let you know "officially" when I hear if my schedule is changing or not.

[tanya]

I want to meet Shaggy :ne_nau:

I have read your posts so many times. I hope you can do it. Just call in sick. :five:

Don't worry about the Subway. Things always work out when Bo is there. :nod:

[Randi]

Sarah can't come after all! :(
She works weekends at a Country Club, and they've told her that June will be too busy of a month (mostly GOLF tournament traffic!) and she won't be allowed to take any time off at all in June! :(

I'm bummed!
Tom now has another "open" place on his Spry permit.


Bogleyfest - Post in this thread the trip(s) you would like to do

6pm would be best for most of us, so those who go to bed early can go early and those who want to come later will still find most of us still there.

[accadacca]

I'll take the open spot with the emperor on Friday.

And could I pretty please be bumped into group 1 on Saturday with my boys Beech and Alex. Tks.

Spry is a fun canyon, you'll like it. Nothin but rappel after rappel after rappel, and the scenery is awesome. :2thumbs:

You have no idea how dissapointed we both are!!! She thought for sure asking this far in advance, she'd be able to take the time off! So I went ahead an signed her up for canyons! We were so looking forward to it! :(

Damn hoyty-toyty golfers!
It totally sucks that she works WEEKENDS!

Good to hear. I actually haven't had a chance to even read much about either yet = n00b. :haha: I just hope they are both sweet. I am on the list for Spry and Boundary.

[tanya]

Bikers
I heard a few bikers want to do some dirt trails on Friday during the fest. Should we start a sign up for that here?


Saturday Canyons
Is anyone else interested in doing a canyon on Saturday? Do we need to get another trip going or is everyone that wants to sign up on the list?

[theking648]

tanya i talked to bo today so I think i'm going to do it.

could you plz add me to Pine Creek and Keyhole on sunday.


thanks.

[ratagonia]

Can we set up a sign-up sheet for Dinner at the Bit & spur on Saturday Night? or would Friday Night be better? 7 PM? I'll go in and see if I can set something up.

Tom

[shaggy125]

new schedule is out and I am officially working the weekend of the Bogley Fest. Sorry :sad: Hopefully next year.

X2 was looking forward to getting out with you.

[Don]

Seems like canyon plans are coming together pretty well. Do we have a solid plan for dinner together? It's been mentioned before that the group is too big for a resturant.
But I'm thinking people won't want to do pot luck both nights. What if we do pot luck one night and restuant luck the other? By resturant luck I mean we pick a general time to meet at the Pizza Noodle (because they have informal seating) and then just try to get our smaller groups as close together as possible?
I'm thinking resturant luck for Friday night and Pot Luck for Saturday. Objections? Concerns?

Now, what about camping? I'll have a group of 6 and we will be camping. I'd like to go someplace big enough and close enough to host anyone interested in camping with us and host the pot luck. While I have camped at Mosquitoe Cove in the past I don't want to plan for that and lose the site to better closeure enforcement. What about Gooseberry Mesa? There's a lot of open land up there and who knows maybe camping up there will entice some Bogley Bikers to come down and camp with us too...
Again, Objections? Concerns?

[Jaxx]

Is it possible to camp here 37.162642,-113.083992 ? Has anyone ever camped near there. I heard rumors that you can. It is Fairly close.

[Pubalz]

I was planing on camping at mosquitoe cove but if there is a better spot then im in. Im not sure were 37.162642,-113.083992 is?

[Don]

Tom

This would be cool, but make it Friday night. Lets do Pot Luck Saturday night.
For potluck; I'll bring a grill (could use a couple more too) then everyone bring your own meat and some side dish to share.

[Don]

I was planing on camping at mosquitoe cove but if there is a better spot then im in. Im not sure were 37.162642,-113.083992 is?

I was under the impression that mosqito cove is closed but not really enforced. I'd hate to have 50+ people out there cooking and drinking when they decide to enforce the closure. We need to just plan for something else and unless someone has a better suggestion I'm thinking Gooseberry looks pretty good.

[tanya]

Can we put you and Don down to be in charge of the nightly gatherings? 2thumbs:


Mosquito Cove - Somewhere in this group is an article on it. It was only closed for a while, but it should now be open.

Well, add me to the list of people coming. I am brining my bike and plan on riding Gooseberry with out kids. Yahoo a weekend away from kiddo's. :cool2:

So Alison's friend Kirsten is not coming. If I may I would like to take her spot on Subway. I am completely new to this but will do my best to study up and find someone to show me how to rappel and what not. It is the only canyon I am really interested in doing. If I can't that is cool, I am sure I can entertain myself on my bike. :ride:

Might be worth mentioning this in the bike section; maybe you could get a couple more Bogley riders to come ride with you...

And the offer stands; we climb weekly in AF and could go over some basics and safely teach you how to rappel.

I would appreciate that. Just say when and what I need.

[ststephen]

Ack! I see above that the Pine Creek/Keyhole trip we are on is shown as Sunday which is the same as the Mystery trip we're also on. Is there a typo on PC/Keyhole? I'm sure Tanya originally had us doing that Sat and Mystery Sun.

No if you look at the first post in this thread it has all the trips (full and open) and is updated daily. Pine/Keyhole has always been on Sunday.
You can start a Saturday Pine/Keyhole if you want.

Dave if I have the guts to rappel I am pretty sure you can handle it after seeing you drop down three fingers of death and those acid drops that made my stomach want to puke! :lol8: What were your words of advice "just don't look".

We will ride Gooseberry for sure and make k25 go with us. :nod:

:lol8: I remember when we were in the car going back to the top. and we were talking about it.. I remember saying that I would never be able to do that.... I'm still not sure if i could but i've all ready have $80 invested in it and my mom is mad at me, so i'm sure going to try. :lol8:

Yes, reviewing the postings to this thread I think both Tanya and I mis-read that back on 4/1. No worries.

Anyone up for leading Pine/Keyhole on Saturday? I'd be willing to switch to some other canyons as well for Saturday. Right now there does not seem to be any open for Saturday. We're "novice", i.e. done several canyons but not ready to lead ourselves.

The Hill (Crybaby Hill) getting up to Gooseberry is VERY ROUGH, as in 2WD forgetaboutit, 4WD high clearance OK but rough. Not a good place for the whole gang to stay.

Tom

[tanya]

In my limited time with my trip coming up on Friday I've read a bit on the Zion canyons. I think my clan, Ststephen (aka Paul), Robin and Aaron would probably be OK with Mystery and that sounds like a great slot. The rap over the boulder might be tricky but they are not first-time rappelers.

OTOH, we would also be fine doing any of the easy canyons like Orderville. We plan to be there for full days Sat and Sun. I know 3 people eats up a lot of spaces on a permit so I want to be flexible.

My last checkin here is tomorrow night. Thanks to all the organizers!


Okay... got you covered. I will put your group of 3 with Kurt doing Mystery on Saturday. Ron and I will find something and I will put Hank on the Subway Saturday since he is getting bumped from Mystery.

Chere I will put you on the next opening or you can join one of the groups for sunday trips.

[ststephen]

Bummer :ne_nau:

How many are in your group and would you prefer to stay in the Pine Creek/Keyhole or the Mystery Trip? If there are just 2 and maybe 3 of you, then you can have mine and my friends spot on Mystery. We have done it many times. Hnak is just one and would be cool on any of the Saturday trips if there is an opening. Will look after you let me know how many.

* Win will shuttle us to the trailhead. Thanks Win
*Trip Full

There are 3 of us: my wife Robin, my son Aaron and me. You are very kind to propose taking your slots in Mystery on Saturday. I have no problem doing Mystery on Saturday. Let's see if any other options show up and give Hank an option to see if there is something else he could go on. Thanks!

[tanya]

Already done. The spots are yours. Hank just wants to go on whatever canyon I will be on. We will get it together.

You and your group are on Mystery for Saturday :five: :2thumbs:

[blueeyes]

I have to drive home Sunday. So guess it is a bike trip for me, see you guys at night. :2thumbs: Make sure I am on the friday and saturday night dinner. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

[tanya]

Consider signing up for Keyhole on Sunday. I am not sure but I assume they will do that one before Pine Creek. It's the easiest in the park and is done quick so you will have time to drive home after.

Trip Organizers: Bo, Pubalz (Dave), Trackrunner (Shawn)

Also I am waiting to hear from Acca and Beach as to what day the plan to bike. Their canyons will then be open for that bike day, but that would not work for you since you are biking too, but it will for someone else. Hank would get the first option of canyon choices since I moved him. But since he is my buddy I know he will forgive me.. right Hank . :mrgreen:

[blueeyes]

OK sign me up tenative, timing is everything... like I said I don't mind entertaining myself on a bike.

I want to hike Angel's landing while I am there. It is all good!

[tanya]

If or when a harder canyon opens up for Saturday, I will put Hank there since he has done SAR and has canyon experience and I will put you on Subway. You are number one on the waiting list for Subway on Saturday.

:nod:

[ststephen]

Tanya - you are such a sweetheart! Thank you! :hail2thechief:
Now I understand why everyone wants to hang with you.

Chere - hope you can fit in half day with us in Keyhole, should be lots of fun!

[blueeyes]

What time on Sun morning would you start the trip and approximately what time would we be done?

I have a babysitter on the clock, time is money. Just have to make sure I can afford it.

You'll have to ask the organizers: Bo, Pubalz (Dave) TrackRunner I've never done it and it will be up to them to set the meeting time.

The descriptions also mention cold water and all the photos I've seen show people in wetsuits. But, again I defer to the leaders and locals who know this well.

Welllllllllll!!!!!! You better dig up a bag of marbles in the playground! :nod: You're gonna be doing Yankee Doodle on sunday with Andy, Marina and I. It's about time you took up a safe activity for a day (and forever) and leave behind that risky sport of MB'ing for a day! You'll be so relieved to find out how fun "gravity" can be! :haha:

Full deep water dry suits are best, but if you don't have one, naked works! :lol8: By the end of June.....wetsuits will be optional, but not at all necessary. :2thumbs: As far as starting time?! I'm an early bird...haven't talked with Shaun, and Dave, but I'd like to get an "O" dark thirty driving start (5:30-6AM. Large group in Subway having a blast?! Maybe 7-10 hours car to car to car (shuttle, etc.)......????? So if we get a 7-7:30 hiking start...hmmmm? Maybe on your way back to SLC by 3-4PM? What? Maybe 5 hours to SLC?....9PM at home? Could actually be done much more expediently though! Hope you can make it!

[tanya]

Hi Bo - other leaders of the Sunday Keyhole Trip...

What about me!?!?!? I might show up Sunday. :lol8:

Your Subway hike is Saturday so I don't think the end time is a concern - as long as they make party time that night. :lol8: It's Sunday trips that many worry about what time they will be done so that they can head home.

If those on your Pine Creek/Keyhole Trip only wanted to Keyhole, what time would they be done about? :popcorn:

Would you do Keyhole First?

[tanya]

Saturday...

Does anyone want to lead Orderville on Saturday maybe. That would open up a Saturday trip to more Newbies, who might then also take advantage of some of the Sunday trips we have going. For those that have never done a canyon at all - they would love doing Orderville, then out the Zion Narrows.

The bikers that are going would love this!


PS... Thanks Paul :five:

Thanks Tanya.. I was very confused last night when I read Bo's post. Confusing me is not hard to do. :lol8:

I was going to bail on the Sunday's PC/Keyhole if it meant I wouldn't get home until 9 or later. I would be so dead dog tired from a trip like that I would end up sleeping on the way home. :nono:

Oops! :oops: Sorry for confusion? Anyway....Since Keyhole and Pine Creek in one day is REALLY pushing human limits.....how bout a 2 AM start in Keyhole? Should get er done by daybreak? Keyhole takes a large group 2.56483 Hours or if we travel fast we could be done in 1.387465 hours. Waddya say Blueeyessmiling! Please join us! :2thumbs: Pine Creek can take from 45 min. to 9 hours????? Big group? Estimate 4.9873021121 Hours? Come on along!

Tanya! Love to have 'ya'! Come on down!

Please sign up Andy Archibald for the sunday Pine Creek/ Keyhole Combo as well? Thanks

[abirken]

AS much as I'd love to do Pinecreek on Sunday, could there be a possibility of doing Keyhole first? That way Chere and I could get on the road before noon? or who knows...maybe it will be such an awesome day, we decide to go on to do PC? Any which way it goes, I know it will be a great time. :2thumbs:

[blueeyes]

Bo if I am going to be there at 2AM. You had better too! I get kinda cranky if I am stood up at that hour of the morning. :lol8:

You bringing coffee?

Your scientific approach to trip planning and precision of estimation is inspiring. Should I bring my trusty circular slide rule to help us fine tune our ETA? Let's see, total weight of participants, divided by the width of the rope, plus the reciprocal of the mean shoe size times...

[trackrunner]

Hi Bo - other leaders of the Sunday Keyhole Trip...

I'm game for when ever but I like doing stuff in the morning.

I would like to do Keyhole first. Think it would make for better logistics.

Well my wife and I just found out she is pregnant. We weren't expecting to have it take on the first try. So she is out of Englestead and yankee doodle combo.

I am still going please leave my name on the list. I am not that cool of a husband. :haha:

[ratagonia]

Can you put me on the Yankee Doodle list?

Was over there the other day. Gnats really bad. Going to be super hot. Hope it is pouring rain for you.

I posted earlier to add my name to the Yankee Doodle would it be possible to add one more under my name so my friend can come? Also, is posting here the correct way of getting on the list?
Thanks

Congrats, Jaxx and Mrs. Jaxx! How long have you been married? And this is the first time you've "tried"?!? :haha: Our first took a year - our second took a weekend... :ne_nau:

[trackrunner]

I posted earlier to add my name to the Yankee Doodle would it be possible to add one more under my name so my friend can come? Also, is posting here the correct way of getting on the list?
Thanks

PM Tanya, that is the quickest way.

[Jaxx]

Congrats, Jaxx and Mrs. Jaxx! How long have you been married? And this is the first time you've "tried"?!? :haha: Our first took a year - our second took a weekend... :ne_nau:

Oh, that came out wrong. We were trying for our 5th child. Crossing fingers for a boy, we have 4 girls now. We tried more than once but we didn't expect it to take the first month.

[trackrunner]

Since this is so close I think it's important to remind everyone of the following. If don't have basic skills then we need to set up a practice day. I'm in Salt Lake country so PM me if you need some help.


Important! We are just a bunch of friends meeting to do canyons together, this is not a class or a guided trip! If you lack rappelling skills find someone to take you out to practice before the Bogleyfest. In the slot is not the time to learn to rappel. You need to be able to do the canyons you sign up for with a group. This means you know how to clip in and rappel without help, you do not 'freak-out' on long or awkward rappels, you can at least dog paddle to shore and you do not 'freak-out' when swimming in darkish, cold canyons.

I'm not on the trip, but I'm interested in the practice day. I sent you a pm, please let me know if there's room for me on the practice day when the dates are set.

[DiscGo]

I won't be there to enforce this, but I suggest that people chip in and buy Tanya's dinner when you get together as a thank you for all the work she has done.

[trackrunner]

I am still going please leave my name on the list. I am not that cool of a husband. :haha:

You might need to PM Tanya looks like your wife is still on the list.

[Jaxx]

So.... all we have left is 2 spots on Sunday on 2 different canyons.

Trip Organizers: Bo, Pubalz (Dave) TrackRunner
Pine Creek and Keyhole on Sunday - 12 limit
4. Robin
5. Aaron
6. Death Cricket
7. Alison
8. Pubalz daughter
9. The King (Dave)
10. Paul (Ststephen)
11. Andy Archibald
12.


Canyon girl is my wife. She won't be coming now. She is still listed on the yankee doodle trip, you can take her off. Looks like you got her off the Englestead trip already.
I will also PM you.

[tanya]

I won't be there to enforce this, but I suggest that people chip in and buy Tanya's dinner when you get together as a thank you for all the work she has done.

:five: yeah... :lol8: or at least lots of drinks.

[Jaxx]

The pregnant wife is removed.. Congrats on that! :2thumbs:

Thanks! And thanks for keeping track of the list. That is probably really annoying.

[tanya]

not at all --- the people doing the work are the trip organizers! All I do is type and little then show up for the parties in Springdale at the fest. Its those trip organizers that should get the free meals. :lol8: -- but you can all buy mine if you want instead. :rockon:

[mmac]

My sister Julia wants to join us on the Sunday Mystery trip with Matt and Randi if there's still space available!

[Don]

So, I'm down for helping plan and even hosting the Saturday night pot luck but I still don't have a firm camping plan and I doubt we can host a pot luck from out behind the Pizza Noodle where Josh and I spent a night last year.
I was thinking somewhere up on Gooseberry Mesa but someone (Tom maybe?) posted that the road up there isn't the best and may not be for everyone. I don't remember it being that bad when I was up there last fall...
Anyone down there have time to check out the road? Or suggest a better sopt to camp?

[trackrunner]

Drove it last weekend after hiking with Bo in my off road honda civic. For normal people I'd recomend something higher clearance then a civic. It had some deep ruts and rocks that I was able to ravel around when needed.

I still think it's do-able I just don't want people skipping the pot-luck Saturday night because they are afraid of the road.

[tanya]

Alex just had his birthday and Don's will be during the fest, so we need to celebrate them there. Does anyone else who is going have a birthday this month?

[ststephen]

Been *so* swamped with work and guiding my son through his first serious final projects and exams. Man, 7th grade is tough! But school's almost over and now Bogley Fest is only 3 weeks away. Yeah!

Do we need to organize some group items like tables, BBQ's etc. for the pot luck? I have room in my truck to bring some stuff but don't own a portable BBQ.

[trackrunner]

I'm not on the trip, but I'm interested in the practice day. I sent you a pm, please let me know if there's room for me on the practice day when the dates are set.

So I've recieved some PMs on basic skills practice for newbs going. I may be free on some week days. Next weekend is the BAM triatholon that I have to help my brother (co-owner) out with. I'm more than willing to help just have to fine some place to go? Maybe Pete's rock, know of a place up Neffs, a few up Big Cottonwood. Looking for some place where an easy top rope rappel, ideal if start out small and can progress to larger height for the noobs. Ideas? Anyone else want to help?

Cody, Josh & me climb every Wednesday in American Fork canyon. There's a nice wall with easy access for rappel training. I had a buddy up there just last weekend for some basic skills stuff. Your welcome to join us this Wednesday after work. Just send me a PM.

[chabidiah]

I have taken some newbs and some scouts up AF in the past. The best place I have found is the first picnic area after the road forks to tibble fork on the tibble road. If you follow the hiking trail up around the back side of the cliff then you can get up on top and set up a top rope. You can drop of the front face or around the side and its a good 50-60 ft. just my 2 cents...we are planning on heading up in the next week or so to take a few people on a refresher. hope this helps.. :ne_nau:

[Alex]

Hate to bail, but I won't be able to make it to the fest at all. My spots for Sat & Sun can be refilled.

Thanks

[Deathcricket]

Ugh! I have to bail on Friday's trip. I have to take a very important test on that friday in Vegas. Sorry about the late notification, But can you take me off the list for Friday only (Tom's trip)? Still no problems with Sat and Sun.

Sorry Tom! I was totally looking forward to meeting you guys too.

Dang!!! There was a post here from mmac? Said something about joining Tom's Birch Hollow group. I zapped it by accident!
I think it said something about 3 people leaving this group and joining Tom's Birch Hollow group - that he opened up allow more, but I can't even find Tom's post - I must have zapped it too! :ne_nau: So I assume that this trip now has 4 open spots.

Everyone Check this to make sure it is Correct Please :nod:


My name is still spelled wrong...

[Don]

I'm going to have to make some changes, again.

Friday my group will look like this:

Trip organizer Don/Josh
Englestead on Friday
1. Don
2. Josh
3. Cody
4. Gonzo
5. Bugby
6. Brad
*Trip Full - 6 max

Tsuya broke his foot jumping out of an airplane, Bugby is a substitution.


Saturday we have 3 spots on the Das Boot Subway permit and 3 spots on mrbrejcha's Spry permit. I'd like to substitute Bugby for Tsuya on mrbrejcha's Spry permit. Then I would like put all three of our Das Boot Subway permits up for grabs. Cody can't stay the whole weekend (which opens his spot) and Josh and Brad will be doing Spry on a 2 person permit I got myself. This 2 person Spry trip will be self sufficient, capable of doing the trip alone but would like to stay kinda close to mrbrejcha's group in order to have lunch together, car pool and maybe even share ropes..?
Tanya, feel free to cut and paste, here's how these should look now:

Trip Organizers: Randi, Bo and Shaun (Trackrunner)

If you signed up for a canyon -- such as Das Boot, make sure you know that you need to have a wetsuit, socks, etc and what kind!

[ststephen]

If you signed up for a canyon -- such as Das Boot, make sure you know that you need to have a wetsuit, socks, etc and what kind!

What about Pine Creek? A few weeks ago there was a TR where some folks froze their buns off because they didn't have wetsuits. Hopefully the water is lower now (and more so in 2 more weeks). Not needed?

My son and wife actually have suits they use for ocean swimming but I don't own one.

[tanya]

Those doing Pine Creek are also doing Keyhole, which almost always needs a wet/dry suit. Last year however a couple of guys (Shane and Hank) --- sort of hung above the canyon and did it without. Pine Creek last year we did not even need one, but usually a wetsuit is needed, yes!

Everyone... if you are not sure, contact your trip organizer.

[mmac]

We did pine creek and keyhole last weekend. Both were very cold and wet - I brought my jetboil and made hot chocolate which was very nice, we all had blue lips even with wetsuits.

[Randi]

OK. With the current changes, I will be doing Das Boot alone! Forget it! I retract my offer to lead it, since no one wants to do it.
But I do want to do Subway. I think the limit is 12 so Bo should have no problem adding me and the other person who wants on. I just need to know if I need to pick up my own permit or if Bo can get slots for two more?

I don't think Shaun was coming on this one anymore:

You can have my place and Ron's, if Randi still wants to do Das Boot, but there can only be 12 total through the Subway and that includes the 6 that can go through Das Boot with Randi. Hank I keep moving around because he is a nice guy, but he needs to be on a Saturday canyon.

[Hnak]

Rather than try to figure out what canyon I'll be exploring, I think I'll just follow Tanya around..... :ne_nau:

Just to clarify.....I do not have not been approved for Friday off from work yet. Thus, we can not arrive in Zion in time to do Das Boot on Saturday. Sorry, Randi - I had hoped that my request would have been approved by now. It is not looking good as I'm still 2nd on the wait list. :ne_nau:

Given our late arrival in Zion, we have no plans for Saturday. I will not know about my time off request until the last minute. I know that we will make the Saturday potluck and will be bringing soup. I'm focused on attending and completing Birch on Sunday with Tom. :nod:

I'm committed to Das Boot with Randi's group (if there is a group)... Can we play it by ear? If Das Boot is cancelled, is there another canyon we could try?

[Randi]

I'm committed to Das Boot with Randi's group (if there is a group)... Can we play it by ear? If Das Boot is cancelled, is there another canyon we could try?

Actually, there isn't a group for Das Boot anymore.
I was under the impression that Felicia had gotten the permit for Sat., when actually she got it for Sunday. I just looked on-line and there are 6 walk in spots availiable for Sat. so "we" could try for it, but I think I'd rather just go ahead and do Subway with Bo's group.

I've got a long day planned for Friday, and I don't want the stress of trying to rush through Das Boot to catch up with Bo's group so we can all do Subway together. Besides, without a navigator, I would most likely get the group lost anyhow. My navigator bailed early on....

I have no plan for Sunday if anybody wants to make one!

Sounds good. I think chipping in for a portopotty is probably a good idea too. Any idea of the cost?
Couple venue questions: Do they have a grill? How big? Gas or briquette? Is there space for us to set up a second grill? Any space for a campfire? If so should we bring firewood? Any space (not on grass) where we can cook with dutch ovens?

Last two questions are more for everyone who's planning to attend the potluck. First, are we doing this straight pot luck or is this a bring your own meat for the grill and a side dish to share kind of thing? And second who is planning to attend?


:popcorn:

[Deeps]

If so should we bring firewood?

I don't know how many Ash trees are around here, but is this an issue?

My son and wife actually have suits they use for ocean swimming but I don't own one.

Condidtions report from this weeked posted on another canyoneering forum stated Pine has a lot of water. Dought it will all evaporate by then so wetsuits are a must especally with a large group of noobs.

[oldno7]

Anyone who is doing a canyon with me:

You need to have rappeling skills before this event, if you do not have these skills, please obtain them prior to this event. The canyons are not the right place to learn how to rappel.
I am not guiding anyone on these trips, I merely see it as an event for people with like minded interest and skills to get together and do some canyons.
If anyone on one of my trips views this as a classroom or a guided trip, please have your name removed from the list.
Having said that I would be glad to share thoughts and ideas once in the canyons. I look forward to seeing different techniques and approaches to solving problems in the canyons. First and foremost, we must be safe.
I think this will be a fun event and hope I don't offend someone but I see these requirements as necessary, so everyone in the canyons has a great time.
I could possibly be available in the Cedar City area a day or 2 before the fest to assist anyone in there rappelling skills.

Hey Shaun, sorry about that. I didn't see your name on the Das Boot list, and when all the other attendee's switched trips - I was alone!

So, I do not have a permit for Das Boot anyhow. There are 6 walk in spots available. If we want to try and get the permit that morning, and we still have interested parites (me, you, Deanpaul?) then I would be game to do it.

We'd have to try and work with Bo's group to facilitate a meet up time so we could continue down Subway with the rest of the group.

I should know this, but I usually get my permits on line.
Can we get a permit on Friday morning for a Saturday canyon?

~Randi

[Deeps]

As long as I have something to do on Saturday, I'm cool.

I've never gotten into the Subway before, so either route is cool. If it's Das Boot, great. My last name is Russell, so the other route is interesting too. I'll go where the group goes.

My son and wife actually have suits they use for ocean swimming but I don't own one.

Condidtions report from this weeked posted on another canyoneering forum stated Pine has a lot of water. Dought it will all evaporate by then so wetsuits are a must especally with a large group of noobs.

Reserved our wetsuits yesterday. My wife decided she didn't want to use her ocean swimming one in the canyon, but my son should be OK with his. Thanks for the heads up!

[trackrunner]

I don't think Shaun was coming on this one anymore:

Yes I AM and including my wife!!! geeze I got bumped from Das Boot the first time so I get on the subway and now I'm bump from that one.

If we still want to preserve a Das Boot I will jump on it. If not then we will be doing Russel & Subway combo.

Hey Shaun, sorry about that. I didn't see your name on the Das Boot list, and when all the other attendee's switched trips - I was alone!

So, I do not have a permit for Das Boot anyhow. There are 6 walk in spots available. If we want to try and get the permit that morning, and we still have interested parites (me, you, Deanpaul?) then I would be game to do it.

We'd have to try and work with Bo's group to facilitate a meet up time so we could continue down Subway with the rest of the group.

I should know this, but I usually get my permits on line.
Can we get a permit on Friday morning for a Saturday canyon?

~Randi

Yes a permit can be obtained by at the backcountry desk but I think Russel/Subway will be the best.

Do you and Matt have any room for me on your "Friday Canyon" :mrgreen:
Been on my list and everytime I've tried to do it with someone experienced enough I get rained out.

I don't know any of the specifics of this trip yet, beyiond the date.
He's the one with the permit!

[theking648]

i'm sure i'll be able to make it to the pot luck.... anyone interested in some cornhole? :haha:

where is everyone staying/camping.. i'm sure i'll sleep in back of the car somewhere on the westside. that mosquito cove place sounded like a good idea if it's open.

I don't mind camping with other bogleyites as long as no one tries to T-bag me while i'm sleeping. :lol8:

We'll have a grill and briquettes so bring your own meat and something to share with the group! If someone has a pot-luck dessert specialty and would like to make that let me know so we don't end up with all dessert and no beans.

We're still planning to camp and still planning on Gooseberry Mesa unless someone has a better suggestion. Anyone is welcome to camp with us.

[Jaxx]

I just talked to a friend and he stayed in Mosquito cove last weekend. So it is still open.

[ststephen]

We're planning on attending both evening gatherings. There are 3 of us: me (Paul), Robin and Aaron. I think I can sign up Robin for baking some brownies and making her Asian cole slaw for Satuday.

Current plans are to stay in a hotel.

I'll bring a pie for dessert on Saturday, if that would help....

The Alison update.....I have to drop my Sunday Canyons (bummer i know) b/c I really need to be on the road for my 7 hour drive home.....Of course I will be doing Subway with the group so no changes there. Chere and I have planned to hike on Friday if anyone would like to join us. I will be arriving into Springdale hopefully around noon on Thursday. If anyone would like to hike, lay around the pool or get together for beers that evening then shoot me a PM! Think Chere will be rolling in Thursday as well? Not sure. I'll be at the Potluck and will bring food......just not sure what that will be yet since planning that far in advance is a challenge for me. Friday night, probably just play by ear on the social thing. Thanks! :2thumbs:

Camping: There is a group camping at Gooseberry Mesa or maybe Mosquito Cove. If someone has a better suggestion, contact Don. There is another group staying on the east side of the park at the Ponderosa. Anyone who wants has been invited to both places.

For Friday night, I am negotiating with the Whiptail Grill, which will be a little more casual and a little cheaper than the Bit. How many people are in? I'm going to tell them 20 to 30.

I would like to be in, but it depends on what time we get out of Imlay. We have 5 or 6 (if Hank joins us)...

Besides the fish tacos they make killer spaghetti squash enchiladas!

This is Chere and Alison's mommy weekend AWAY. :lol8: We can run naked through the woods if we wanna.........

Hmmm I don't think I have done that since before I was a mommy :roflol:

Be at the potluck for sure. Possibly bringing homemade chocolate chip cookies and lemon cookies. Friday have no idea.

[tanya]

Trip Leaders! It's a good idea to try and PM everyone on your group that is not currently posting in the thread to verify they are going on your trip. If you cannot get hold of them, you can open up those spots. :five:

[Don]

Sign Up List for Saturday Pot Luck in Springdale - June 27th. 6:00 PM to 10:15 PM. Bring our own meat to BBQ plus something to share with the group. So far we have: soup, pie, cookies, dutch oven cobbler

We'll have a big pot of baked beans, dutch oven cheesy potatoes, chips and dip. Plus we're bringing down a big grill and plenty of briquettes so plan on that being available for everyone to cook meat on.


Any chance there's a fire pit? Should we bring fire wood?

[Scott Card]

There is a chance that some of the Mapleton Crew will be there for the Saturday pot luck. We can do what ever (Jello excluded) in the dutch oven. I will see if John will be coming down.

[tanya]

Awesome! I finally get to meet Scott! :five:

[Bo_Beck]

Dave and or Shaun?!

I have secured my permit for 12 hiking the Subway on Saturday. I have not gotten a permit for either Pine Creek or Keyhole yet for sundays affairs. Have either of you gotten one or the other or both permits for these sunday hikes?

[Pubalz]

I have 3 Pine Creek permits reserved and 2 for Key hole :mrgreen:

[ststephen]

Dang! Looks like we're off by one week on this Bogley Fest from the annual celebration of Naked Hiking Day. Instead of taking wetsuits we'd be using birthday suits :naughty:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090619/ap_on_re_us/us_odd_naked_hiking

[Deeps]

Really looking forward to Bogleyfest!

I'd like to meet up with everyone after dinner on Friday, and will figure something out to bring to the potluck on Saturday.

I'm planning on camping down there. I know Gooseberry Mesa is free, is there a fee to camp with the group at the Ponderosa? Where are the majority of people going to be?

[theking648]

these are places i'm looking at... gooseberry mesa it a little out of the way for me.

Wire mesa 37

[chabidiah]

I think Jaxx and me and our Bro r going to camp at mosquito cove since its close and easy...

[Deeps]

Remember the part in Revenge of the Nerds when they ask "why do they call you booger" right before the guy picks his nose?

Why do they call it Mosquito Cove? And if it's what I think, why would anyone camp there? Just asking...

[theking648]

there is an 80% chance i'll bring my cornhole boards to the pot luck... and i'll go camping at Mosquito cove.

[Pubalz]

I stayed at Mosquito cove for the last 2 weekends and ill be there next weekend its some of the best FREE camping on the river you can come across. Ill be in a white Dodge thuck with a yellow shell.Swing by will tilt back a cold one :2thumbs:

[theking648]

well i'll be in a blue 1990 grand prix with the paint falling off. :roflol:

did we ever decide on a bogley gang sign so we can identify people :lol8:

[ratagonia]

Do we have a standard meeting place???

Tom - Spry - Friday - Meet at the Pine Creek Bridge (lower bridge) at 8 am. I have to get the permit, so I might be a bit late. No wetsuits or other stuff, bring tiblocs if you have them and plenty of slings and biners, helmet required, figure out the car spotting while you are waiting for me (and we'll park mine up at the top). I'll bring the ropes.

Tom - Engelstead - Saturday - Meet me at the Mean Bean Cafe at 7:45 am READY TO GO (ie, get there earlier if you need anything). We will figure out car spotting and then head out real soon.

Tom - Birch Hollow - Sunday - Without further communication, we will meet at the turn for the North Fork Road at 8 am. This means leaving Springdale at 7:30 AM. We can try to carpool from Springdale by meeting at the potluck dinner.

Tom

[Deeps]

I've been looking on KSL and craigslist for 3mm wetsuits, and have not found any that would work for me yet. I'm not flush enough to buy one new, so I'm looking to rent. Any suggestions on where to rent wetsuits? Should I rent in Salt Lake, or wait until I'm in near/in Zion? I've been thinking full wetsuit based on the reports that some canyons still had snow, but maybe a shorty would be fine for Subway/Echo?

[abirken]

Simply put... I can't go to Zion. Please remove my name from Subway and you guys have a blast. :nod: I think I'm going to go crawl under a rock and cry right about now.

[blueeyes]

Don't stay under that rock to long Alison. You made the best decision. Miss ya!

[Bo_Beck]

The post that described a bit about friday night dinner and saturday night potluck seems to have evaded me? Anyhow....Maria and I plan to bring a large bowl of Taboule (sort of a bulgar wheat salad) to the potluck. I'm not too sure where this takes place? Did I just lose the post that described the evening events? I think we were meeting at the Whiptail for dinner on friday night? Where is the Whiptail? What time were the meeting times? Thanks.

I'm not clear on Friday night either. First the Bit and Spur was proposed for 7 but then I think Tom was looking into Whiptail as an alternative? I'm not sure if it is settled yet.

[oldno7]

My Saturday proposed Mystery trip will be meeting at the VC at 8:00am.
We will be leaving very close to this time. Dropping one car off at the Junction, then all in 1-car to the East side trailhead.

My Sunday trip will be meeting at the Southbound, Leeds exit(I-15) at 8:00am

Helmets required for both days. You must have a safety tether for Mystery,(on your harness) and rappel device of choice.
I have a 125' rope for Mystery, if someone else has one in this range it would be helpful.
I will bring a 200' rope for Sunday's Hidden Star, If someone has another in this range it would be great.

I will be in a red dodge pick-up.

Thanks, looking forward to some fun trips.

Some places in SLC you can rent a wetsuit cheaper for a week than you can in sprindale for a day. Is a wetusit needed for the Subway it depends on air temps, if you are warm or cold blooded person (get cold quickly), if you have quick drying cloths and a dry fleece if needed, etc, etc. So YMMV. But I think you'll be fine with a shorty, or even without, but again it depends on you.

Reports are Echo still has snow and is still closed. If it opens soon a wetsuit will be needed and by the sounds of it the fuller the wetsuit the better.

I've got a permit for Keyhole Thursday, we're planning on starting late and doing most of the canyon in the dark, maybe even turn around and do it again backwards. I've got 3 open slots on the permit if anyone is interested. The canyon is wet and probably very cold this time of year so must have a dry-suite or acceptable wet-suite for the conditions.

PM me if interested.

I was able to get on the Sunday Pine Creek trip, so I'm set. You guys are on your own for Mystery.

I'm considering doing Orderville from the top on Friday depending on weather. If anyone is interested, send me a pm. I'll be trying for the permit tomorrow afternoon.

For those of you are with me on the Boundary trip Saturday. Lets meet at the West Rim TH at 7. My group will be camped up at Lava Point the night before, so if you want to hitch a ride down from the campsite to the TH then look for our white Rosenberg truck and our black chevy truck.

Allright, alright...I know that the party would be pretty boring without me there to liven it up. We'll try to be there. I'm not sure what we'll bring but I can bring some liquor and beer from vegas though. Any requests?

1554 Black Ale. buy a case for me and I'll pay for it. Don't let anyone else get at it... (if you would, pretty please...)

Tom

Okay, I'll try.

Its been awhile since I've been up around the tunnel. Pine Creek bridge, its just past the east side of the tunnel, right? How can one tell the difference between lower & upper?

Thanks, Paul

That is ONE COLD CANYON. Got cold in my 4/3mm wetsuit a week ago, then pulled on the vest and was OK. All but the most Walrus-like will want to wear quite a bit of rubber.

Later in the summer, maybe. But not now.

Tom

Thanks Tom, I wasn't going to take my dry-suite but now I think I will.

"Pine Creek Bridge" is the bridge at the very bottom of the hill, at the same altitude as the Main Zion Canyon, that the road crossed before switchbacking up the hill.

The East End of the Tunnel (and the bridge there) are known as "Tunnel East".

Me, Maria and Julia are planing on attending the potluck Saturday night. I was thinking about bringing beer, but I'm not sure if there are any laws against bringing AZ alcohol into UT... I poked around online, but couldn't find anything. Does anyone know for sure?

Upon further research... it seems like a felony :(

I'll have to figure out something less illegal to bring to share.

Pretty sure it's legal to bring in a personal consumption amount. Probably a limit to that or it could just be a rumor I heard. Anyway, just put it in the trunk and don't give anyone a reason to look there. No big deal, and no exaggeration; all 28 alcoholics in Utah have done it once or twice and half the mormons come in carrying illegal fireworks...

I'm getting ready to leave early in the morning from CA. Wondered what type of food is needed for potluck saturday.

Are folks going to be hanging out at particular camp sites Thursday night?

Also, where is Subway meeting for Saturday? I wasn't sure where it was from the post, thanks, again...

I'll be at Mosquito Cove with my group, plus Chere and Dean and I'm pretty sure a few others. If we can get on the road by five we should roll in there by 9 tomorrow night. I'd like to get out earlier and for once in my life set up a tent in daylight. I like the in-camp socializing aspect of Bogley camps and welcome a bigger group there! The more the merrier!

Scattered storms in the forecast for tomorrow. Anyone concerned or are we just not going to talk about it because talking might jinx it?

[oldno7]

Scattered storms in the forecast for tomorrow. Anyone concerned or are we just not going to talk about it because talking might jinx it?

Probably one of the hardest calls to make in Zion this year is, what will the weather do.
Lot's of things to ponder in the decision making process. How fast is my group, what is the expected time we will be exposed to FF danger, What kind of escape routes does the canyon offer, do I and all in my group have bivy gear, etc.
I have witnessed Thunderstorms so far on a 0% chance of rain, as well as no precip. and clearing on 40%-70%
The only ones who can make the final decision are you and those in your group, on the particular day. And even then---there are no guarantee's.

4:30am was not early enough for our guy Frank to get a Mystery permit,(some guy spent the night I'm told) so we will be doing Spry tomorow as I have been holding that permit for awhile just in case this happened.
Still plan on meeting at the VC parking lot at 8:00am Sat.

The Spry permit is printed and in my hands...........

Does anyone else in this Sat. group have a 200' rope?

[Deeps]

There is a group of us at Mosquito Cove, all the way in at the end of the road, go parallel with the highway. We're the last big sandy area on right. Three small tents, two large. That may change, lots more room.

Tanya, please pencil Yo and I in for tonight. On Saturday we'll probably just stop by later in the evening.

So.... We had some adventure last night. This trip ran into an incident in Englestead that resulted in a Kane County SAR. We await the details. Worst of all they missed dinner at the WhipTail! Put that place on the good ones to hit in Springdale. Poor Chere was pacing at the campsite worried about these guys, but Bo came to the rescue to get her some info. All this lasted late and that 5:30 AM start for the Subway meeting came early! I am glad I did not have a spot and got to sleep in -- although I did have a message waiting for me at 9am when I finally woke up from Trackrunner -- there was probably an opening that morning, but I happily slept through it. :lol8:

We want the story guys! :popcorn:
