A note?

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.

Dang! I was looking forward to hiking with you again Alison. I do hope all is well, and look forward to the next time.

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.

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.
Kurt

Sorry for the edit Tanya..........

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?

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.

Meet Tom at the Pine Creek Bridge (lower bridge) at 8 am. He has to get the permit, so he 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 Tom's up at the top). Tom will bring the ropes.

Hey Tom, Can you fill that open spot with Yancy Zimmerman, he's flying in from NYC and driving down with us on Thursday.

Thanks.

Check All Updates... no more for Boundary since it was suppose to be 6 person max and I had missed that before.

Trip Organizers - please post where you want to meet your group so I can add it to the info! :2thumbs:

Randi and Shaun? What time should we meet at the Lower Left Fork Trailhead? I'm an earlybird, but will throw out a time and correct me if you would like to start earlier or later?

5AM

:haha: ...........No I figure if we meet at 7AM at the lower trailhead, and dink around and work out the shuttle to the top we could be hiking by 8 or so?

Your thoughts?

Sure, sounds good to me.

Also, TANYA, please add mmac plus two to the Birch Hollow trip.

Thanks.

Me, Chabidiah, and my other brother-in-law(Boots) will be at the pot luck on Saturday. We will all bring some kind of salad probably unless something else is requested.
