Bogley Family Fest - Zion - May 2010

[ststephen]

Any thoughts on what to bring to Sat. potluck? The wife and I will be coming down and going to the potluck with Win and Yo and Thane and Dana.

Excellent, glad you're coming down!

Good question. Items which can't be cooked quickly at the campground are a good bet: potato salad, chili. Are there vegetarians among the group? Always good to have something w/o meat. Meat wise I've heard about a smoked turkey and I'm going to do a tri tip for fajitas.

Gotta go load the car and head out now...

We're thinking Potato Salad, if someone else goes that way we'll adapt.

No thoughts on what to bring ('cuz I'm no good at that), but !

I just passed a Subaru heading south, towing a trailer, with a bogley sticker in the back window and loaded for bear! It was blueeyes! I was headed to work...

Must be a BogleyFest down south.

I hope everybody had a good time, it sure was nice to meet some people. Anxious to hear how the night Keyhole trip was, bottom up!?!?

I love that Kev wore his Lei in Keyhole................awesome!!!!

Speaking of Kevin, last night before bed I told E he's my favorite hiking partner; above all my other hiking partners and E asked 'Even better than Kevin or Josh?' I told him 'heck yeah.' Better than the best.

I love that Kev wore his Lei in Keyhole................awesome!!!!

Me too! Kev also brought these cute little mini-glow sticks for all of us to adorn our helmets & bodies with! They made great antenna, that unfortunately don’t show up in the pix. Thanks for bringing a camera btw Mike!

I wouldn't be surprised to see a Springdale headline which reads: Tourists driving late at night along highway nine, spot giant ninja bugs from outer space!

Keyhole at night was a blast! And a night descent lent itself very well to jumping out and scaring the bejeezes out of unsuspecting friends!

I’m just bummed that I didn’t get to spend more time at camp – drinking, eating and conversing with a bunch of you! It was good while it lasted, and I can’t wait to do it again. Alison, one of these days we WILL get into a canyon together!!!

Great food! Great people! AMAZING Zion! ♥

Hey, it was great to meet DeathCricket/Jacob Joshua/Otis, Cherie, Eric, Sarah, jaxx, Chububilim, Trent, Canyon Mike, the other Mike, and to see Randi, Kevin, and after so long ! Keyhole at night - yay! Gotta become a B-fest tradition. Next time w/beach balls!

[Felicia]

I'm game for next year!!!

As you came up on me I thought to myself.... that looks like Scott on his Beemer. And it was!! Wish ya was headed south with the rest of us.

Today I have to opposite of homesick.

Me too!

Can't wait for the next get together. Do we have to wait until next year??? I hope not.

There was talk about taking Winterfest to Colorado.... going Alison's way for some snowshoeing hut to hut.

I love Don's idea of Escalante.

Anyhoo I can't wait!

[Erik]

So I took a couple of wanders through Watchman loop D, and saw this Jeep with a Bogley sticker... Turned out to be Don, who was kind enough to not only share some space in his campsite but get my instantly hooked up for trip down Pine Creek with Cirrus200, ststephen and crew! It was a great trip and I'm really glad I got to meet so many of you. Looking forward to many more!

It was great to have you join us. Plus Erik brews a mean cup of joe!

[trackrunner]

so did anyone go down Subway. I have a full left fork planned here in a few days. thinking there may be too much snow and water for upper left fork.

[ststephen]

Sorry, I bailed on Subway. I hadn't heard anything positive about conditions and then I was feeling like it would be more fun to be with "the gang" vs. just the 3 of us, so I did not use my permit. Oh, well. Have to hit it next time...

[Cirrus2000]

trip down Pine Creek with Cirrus200, ststephen and crew!

Damn, I've been demoted...

Was excellent having you along, Erik! Man, that was a good time, one and all. I agree with Randi, it was great doing the midnight Keyhole, but hanging out with everybody at the campground would have been great, too!

I'm recovering in Vegas ( - seriously?!?) right now, with lots percolating through my head from the last couple of weeks. Between shows, showgirls, and rowdy drinking binges, I hope to start uploading some photos, vids and reports over the next 23 hours before my flight home.
