Bummer. Our loss is definitely their gain.

Change of plans for us - won't be able to get there.

Sadly I'm out too. Spent this past weekend helping Whet Newdell install the woodstove in the Yurt. He needs help to finish & the only time he has free is the coming weekend.

Wondering if the Barron Canyon is still a possibility or is it too late now?

I maybe out too. My body is a bit beat up from the ADK's over the weekend. Great time but I'm sore.
I'd offer to help with the yurt but I'd probably just be in the way.

Do we have a meetup time on Friday?

Hi,

Looks like there'll only be a few of us heading in this weekend. As far as I can tell, there's Iguana and his wife, Cruiser51 and myself. I'm not sure if Brantwing and/or Rand said they'd be coming. Since Ralph Bice is a pretty big lake, it might be easier if we went in as a group.

I originally had this booked as a Friday the 4th to Sunday the 6th trip, but added on the Thursday so guys like Keewaykeno and Highboy could go in early if they wanted. Since neither of them are coming and Cruiser51 (and company?) are arriving Friday, I'm thinking of dropping the Thursday and just meeting up with everyone at the Kearney Park office Friday morning at around 9am.What do you think?

Incidentially, it's supposed to get pretty chilly Friday night with an expected low of -2°C.

Brantwing and I will be coming in on Friday, assuming you are looking at opening the park office.

Currently making a new under quilt, saw that -2C forecast, I hate being cold and the one that I have been taking is summer weight

I have to pickup a rental tandem from some undetermined location/outfitter, so i'm not sure what time we will be there. We will be at the outfitter for when they open.

I think I'll be able to make it out this weekend. It's unfortunate that it's a smaller group as I was going to take this opportunity to try roasting a whole turkey by the fire. The smallest one I could find is 11.25 lbs.
