    WNC> 8th Annual John Rock Hang July 21-23 2017

    H*#*% No!!! Actually, other than the midnight stampede arrival and almost burning you alive, they weren't that bad...

    I wouldn't mind packing in some Swedish steel to try and take out one or two of those widow makers out there. I can't decide if this would be a total LNT faux pas. Maybe we should just let nature take its course and squish one of us eventually.

    I'm pretty sure we aren't supposed to cut anything still standing.

    I'll definitely be hauling in some proper libations. Not to be used at the same time.

    Good point.

    This is for anyone who has not been there before.
    Also there are no bidets or plumbing or electric power and water near campsite should be filtered?? Or boiled??

    Filtered has always worked for me.
    I will have a gravity filter set up in camp if anyone wants to use mine.

    Gqgeek81 with libations and story telling with fact and fiction blended---we can skip water at least until morning coffee.
    Once I got going the right direction--the trail was easy to follow and a fun hike with smooth path and gradual easy upgrades.

    Thanks for the link, Dennis. Last I heard, Loki and 410 were out West. Hopefully, they can make it back in for the Hang.

    Edit:
    I screwed up the multi-quote and can't figure out how to fix it. Answered some questions in the above, but you have to dig around to figure it out. Sorry.

    Yo foxpoop, make Intimidator drag the Yeti this year!

    Have a great hang. I wish I could justify a 10 1/2 hr drive one-way to the LoveDr

    Good idea. Intimidator now works for RBTR, so he will be coming from Raleigh this year. I will just let him grab the cooler out of the back of the truck on his way in.
    Wish you could make it.

    Yes Kevin it would be nice if 410 and Loki could make it like last year.

    I don't need to make my pack lighter. I need to make my (_*_) lighter.

    I will be bringing some firewood so if anyone else attending can pick up some at a local store it would help. Thanks.
