    NOVA Hang photos

    Since it appears that no one has started a thread yet, here is your officially unofficial trip report...please add your photos to be immortalized on HF.

    First, the forecast. Friday was a bit chilly, but Saturday warmed up to a balmy temp of forty something. The temperature police will come along and correct these stats, but until then I can tell you that someone reported 29° this morning. This is unverified.






    The people staying at B-19 gave a new meaning to “campfire TV”. They had a campfire AND a TV.

    At many given points during the weekend, Jimbo could be heard calling out “Scissors!!!”. This was his code word for “I am out of brownies!”

    Some random photos of attendees:






    That’s Bob showing off his top quilt. Definitely warm!!



    I went for a mini hike this morning and got some pics.

    Thanks everyone for being so kind and welcoming to the PA group. You’re a bunch of sweethearts!
    I’m posting my favorite photo captured of a very excited dinner guest running to Yojimbo’s site. I don’t know who you are, but I envy your youth and vigor.

    I want to think again of dangerous and noble things.
    I want to be light and frolicsome.
    I want to be improbable and beautiful and afraid of nothing

    My thermometer read 26°F Friday night, and 31°F Saturday night.

    I don’t have much, we were camped wayyyyyy over at A20, and hadn’t seen each other in a while so we mostly hung by ourselves.

    Still; fun had

    Shrewd, if I'd have known yall were down there I sure as heck would have come hung out - no pun intended, lol - I'd love to hear about some of your hikes, including your AT and PCT thru hikes. Glad yall had fun for sure though.

    Be careful, once I get started it’s hard to get me to shut up
