Shameless self promoting bump...

Room for plenty there. Carpooling is wise.

Come if you can.

@ Ken You could do it, but you would miss most of the fun.

@ Adam. Wise choice!

Everyone is welcome. Just don't wear the welcome out.

@Doug....let's see, in less than a week you had an earthquake, a hurricane and tornadoes in/near your area. It might be safer out here in Cali? ;)

@Ken, My folks are coming out at that time, but may be able to have them see my brother first.

Miss you all.

Ken H.--

Keep me in mind as a "maybe" for a saturday-sunday version, or for driving up Friday after work and camping at the trailhead.

Woodstoves preferred.

I am thinking that temps could get to near freezing. I expect no snow though.

Jack. You don't need to prove anything.

I will ask people to RSVP as we get closer to the date.

I dreamt last night that I was out there but forgot my poncho or a rain jacket and it started snowing then turned to rain. At least now I have been forewarned and will make sure I pack everything.

I already "signed up" so I am just bumping it. So excited, can't wait, love that area. Thursday night car camping nearby or what?
Go ahead and bring the snow Jack; it's all good.

Ken,

I'm in. As in, For sure In. Put me down on any rsvp list you start to conjure up.

I'm planning on driving myself from the bay area, probably to car camp Thursday night. Anyone else from this neck of the woods feel free to tag along. Anyone else coming from the south, lets work out stashing other cars and taking a full load of people up there.

Can't wait.

Nathan if you are down, I can do. I can leave work between 1:30 and 2:30 if you are interested. Not sure how long it takes to get there though. Camp at trailhead and hike in the next day??

Will be set up in beautiful Morris Meadow. When you see the view of the meadow in this photo, look to your left. We should be over near the creek.

That is pretty easy. Not to be a pain, what highway is this off of, or basically what is the directions? You can email me if need be. I am pretty sure that I can make this for a night
