Surely someone with "one-click power" can do something?! :rolleyes::lol:Quote:

I think Dirk can give you plenty of Intel on how it worked out last year. Go for it...we need the parking space 😄.Quote:

The power line route is very very hilly. I would stop at Hare Road and hike your stuff to the intersection where Hare and Reynolds meet and then go back and park at the power line entrance. That's what I did on the way out. Couldn't face dragging my gear back up and down those steep hills. I think I ended up following Reynolds Road on they way in. Not the way to go in my opinion. Following Hare in might be better but there was really no clear trail either way due to all the snow.Quote:

2) I'm not much of a camp cook. But if somebody would just tell me what food and/or supplies I could bring, I'd be glad to do so. I brought several dozen eggs to the fall hang that didn't get used. Would love to contribute. Cooks: what food can/should I bring for you?
Same here. I think I'll go with something easy like bacon and brownies. I have a brownie pan from Pampered Chief which makes KILLER ~2"x2" brownies. I love them! No, I'm not putting bacon in the brownies...that sounds like something for the Gluttony Hang :)Quote:

Bummer....it was great meeting you at the Gluttony hang. Looking forward to hanging out with you again. And, if plans change, you know where we will be.Quote:

Sounds fun, wish I could go, but I do not have the gear or insulation to withstand a Michigan winter's night. Stay warm out there, friends.
