No chatter about Purdy boil so far. I know who has the cheat so let's just sit back and SEE HOW THAT WORKS!

**peeeeetey** · 10-29-2022, 18:27

I need a plan!! Phantom what do you need?

**Phantom Grappler** · 10-29-2022, 21:37

Peeeeetey, I see you survived The Gorge!
I hope your granddaughters are looking forward to hot chocolate on cold mornings.

If you want to get some hammock camping gear, bring cash. I think, I’m not allowed to describe gear here.
Some gear is top of line, barely used
And some has been used many times
I’ve not priced any gear
Maybe half price for good stuff
And a lower fraction for items in less demand

I’m running out of storage space for my gear. As I’ve been bitten by hammock bug and got new gear.

Summer time...
But the nights will be cool enough for good sleeping!

Yes, it would make it safer with the fire.

Is this open to others? Is it still in the works? I might slip up for an overnight backpacking trip and then stay over Friday night in the campgrounds. Let me know what you all have planned.

Y’all all are welcome to join us Thursday
After I receive our firewood load, Thursday afternoon, I’ll be ready to backpack to Beech Camp
Tazmaniac was gonna go, but his work schedule won’t allow him to camp Thursday night in Uwharries
I don’t remember if anyone else is trekking with me

I’ll have had my main meal meal Thursday lunch, before trekking
Thursday night and Friday morning will be snacks and muh coffee.
We will camp on Dutchman’s Creek Trail, where it crosses Dutchman’s Creek three times in rapid succession. Plenty of creek water for coffee!
If not back at Yates before lunch Friday, BigFoot has done got me

Just meet at Yates Then? What time are you all thinking? I'm in no hurry, so hanging out at Yates for awhile until everyone is ready is fine with me.
So you know who I am, I'll be driving a silver Tacoma. Not that there are any of them around.

**Phantom Grappler** · 10-31-2022, 15:39

Yes meet at Yates
I will be at Yates until our firewood load is delivered and paid$
After wood delivery I’ll be ready to go
I don’t know, maybe he will deliver around 3 or 4

The hike is around an hour and 15 minutes

Aaaaaaaiiiiigghhhttt
