I have been absent the last few years, but I would love to come back and see everyone. Glad to see that it is still being held.
Is this the location?

Just seeing this. I have two hikes that I am supposed to do in October. One to Reavis Ranch and the other a rim to rim of the Grand Canyon. I will try to arrange things to squeeze this in, but if...
Thank you to everyone that came. I wish that I could have stayed longer. Hope everyone made it home safely and I will see you next year.
Was hoping it would be warmer. Those temps may eliminate my wife and a couple kids. But I will enjoy it.
Only Dennis replied, but I sent the combination to [arczeneb; Artful; AZsteelman; FJRpilot; Randerson; Redfish; wolverine43;]
I won't be there Thursday, but I am sure that someone else will open...
Let me know if you think that you will be arriving early on Thursday. I will send out the gate combination tomorrow.
It is baby steps. This is the first year that I created an online spreadsheet for the event. Maybe next year everyone will be able to edit.
But we are not welcome to sit under the canopy??? :lol:
Some of my kids may not be able to come up until Friday. If that is the case, I do not plan on bringing a canopy or cook stove for just the one night.
Done. I know that everyone was hoping that you were going to make them. :thumbup:
Sure, not a problem. I was asking the "others" to start picking a day. Don't feel any pressure. We are easy going and it is all supposed to be fun. :)
Absolutely. We can have up to 50 people before we have to bring in extra toilets. The site itself can easily hold over 100. I will add you to the spreadsheet.
I have google fi which is sprint and t-mobile. Sometimes I get reception at the campground, sometime not. Happy Jack is 15-20 minutes away and has a cell tower; not sure whose it ism but I often...
There are several people that have stated that they plan to bring a group meal to cook. It would be helpful if you would select a day and meal so that we can keep it coordinated.
Preparing a meal is completely optional. We track it because in years past we had so many people bring food to share that there was a need to coordinate it. We always have some that prepare there...
For those that have not yet responded, any chance you might be bringing any kids this year? Mine want to know if any others will be there.
The details of the announcement can be found here: https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/news-events/?cid=FSEPRD640870
Firstly I will say that I think that a fee increase is completely...
That would be great. Thank you.
I may be able to bring up some archery gear, but we will have to do it outside of the campsite.
I can also bring some odds and ends to make a UCR or whoopie sling.
Is anyone looking for any specific activities this year, or is it going to be mostly eating and resting with conversation mixed in?
If you post a day, meal, and dish, I can update the spreadsheet.
I got back the signed paperwork today; we are official for Long Valley Oct. 10-14.
I tried to send a private message to people that have shown interest in previous years. Messages could not be...
When you post, please let me know which nights you plan to attend, as well as the number of people you may bring. I will use this information to populate the google sheet.
Thank you.
The announcement post is now live.
Come to the Fifth Annual AZ Fall Hang!
Where
Once again we have reserved the Long Valley Campground near Clint's Well up on the Mogollon Rim for our fifth annual fall group hang.
When

I requested the site for Thursday the 10th - Monday the 14th. I should hear back today. Sometimes they close it that week so they are confirming that they can leave it open for us.
The people have spoken...who am I to argue :)
It depends. Last year I reserved the site through Monday, but no one stayed. If people would like to stay until Monday I can get it.
Last year's thread....

It is time to reserve the site for the fall hang. Right now it is booked until October. They will usually leave it open until mid October as long as there are paid reservations. If you plan to...
So could someone please recap the most current plan? I want to make sure I have the correct details. Thanks.
I read that Flagstaff got 35 inches of snow yesterday.
My son's eagle scout project is Feb. 1-2...so I am out for that weekend.
I am about ready for an outing. Let me know when you have the dates and a location. Flagstaff in early February sounds good to me. And if we are near the vehicles I could bring some kids and...
Current April Schedule
April 13 : Gaslight Theater in Tucson
April 17-20 : AZT section hike
April 26-27 : National archery competition in UT for kids
So April is out for me. Let me know if...
Art, my daughters want the pumpkin bar recipe. All the baked good disappeared to my very pleased kids.
That's too bad. I was looking forward to record numbers this year. Maybe next time.
I should be there by 2pm to open the gate, but will send out the gate code to those that might beat me there.
I think that we are good for Friday night. Randy and I already messaged each other. I will bring beans and potato salad as sides. Randy will have enough brats. I will also bring a dutch oven for...
Updated numbers of those attending; looks like we may have a a record number Friday and Saturday. I added the totals to the bottom of the sheet for each night. We have up to 31 people that have...

There is a lot of space there. You don't have to worry about being on top of others. Should work out fine and others have brought kids past years.

This is the latest, let me know if I have missed you.
It's doable, but you might have to carry all of your water. Plus you are climbing the mountain which is more difficult. It would be easier to move east along the trail and hike into Horton Springs...
Where do you plan on finishing the hike? The whole trail would take me more than two days.
