What's the headcount on this attempt? Mulling it over.
-
Leave Ellinor for another time and do the HOM with TotemLake next weekend!
I'm only getting a one day leave slip, and I anticipate getting lost in the woods for at least two days and an ankle injury taking another two days when I try French Peak.
-
Does anyone have any weekend plans for a hike? I have several ideas if anyone is interested, I'm leaning towards the Olympics.
Right now I'm still watching the weather though, and if it looks like rain on Saturday I may just put the car up on the lift and flush the transmission.
I think you should go check on your Mt. Ellinor cache so I know it's there when I look for it next weekend.

I found a track log online from someone who made the climb to Camp Muir. I cleaned it up a little and have posted it to my web site:
Thanks for posting that. It'll come in handy when I attempt Muir in the next few weeks. I used your route on Mt. St. Helens, and it really saved me when I got a little confused on one of the boulder field. I just had the GPS guide me back to the route.

Well at least that is a better excuse than going back to Wisconsin to drink beer and eat brats. Or is it?
I know which one I'd rather have been doing.

You've DNF'd Ellinor... TWICE?!
The third time's the (dnf) charm, Bullmoose... Although if you wait a little longer, your daughter will be able to find it for you.

Well, once was in a pretty heavy snow, so I have an excuse for that one. Next time I go up, it's going to be just me and Chewie, and we'll take that mountain apart if we have to.
-
Well, I missed Spring Fling because of finals, so I'm going to have to make an effort to get to this one, especially since Little Moose will probably be old enough to partake in some of the kids events.
D'oh. That IS the weekend that I tentatively scheduled my Mt. Adams climb. (Now to flip back to Outlook calender to look for a better Adams weekend.)
-
I'm interested.
I've found 2, hid 1.
Oh, and DNF Mt. Ellinor. Twice.
-
Great cache!
What? I only have 1 of the 33 done?!
Well, I'm planning a hike to Camp Muir in the next few weeks, so I'll have two then.
-
I recently got the pictures developed from the camera in one of my caches. I just uploaded the pictures and started assigning names, but I thought we could make it a community project. (OK, I need help, I have a tough time at relating 2-D pictures to 3-D faces.)
Go here to see if you can identify your fellow cacher.

One of the highlights from Sunday's hike:
So, did you do Mulkey? Or something else?
EDIT: Nevermind, see your log at Mulkey now. Still, cfm (below) is right.
-
Well, I decided to do the Upper Big Creek Trail, get the cache there after swinging a mile up the 812 to get the Half Way tp Ellinor TC.
Six miles total. Snow shoes needed for the middle two and a half or so right now.
I had a good time despite being alone. I'll have to try to make a HOTM one of these days.
-
Looks good. I plan on attending.
-
I'm kind of balking at the 3 hour drive to Colonel Bob trailhead. Six hours in the car is six hours I'm not studying or sleeping, two things which I really need to do on weekends.
Three Lakes still looks interesting, but I'm thinking about something closer to home, like putting a Geocache on South Mountain, where there also happens to be an unfound Terracache.
Or even just staying in Kitsap and cleaning up Green Mountain.
-
Well, I got through my Tuesday meetings with my Saturday intact, so it's looking good so far.
Doesn't look like weather is better at one place or the other.
-
I'll have to see how the week pans out with work and school, but I was thinking I really should try to hit a trail on Saturday, if only to get the dog some exercise.
I'll keep an eye on this thread.

"Why the hell are you here at night? This is public property!" his finger flung into the air as if it were a lethal weapon.
That's hilarious. How dare you be on PUBLIC property. I would have asked him what the hell he was doing on public property.
Congratulations on handling that situation well.
-
I'd love to do this, and might even get that .45 I've been eying up, but I'll be out of town that particular weekend.
I'll keep an eye on this thread, though.
-
I been wonder about what you are up to. Are you a lawyer yet? Dick
About half-way there.
-
Congratulations on the milestone, Dick.
It sure is great that a simple geocache can bring up such a great memory. Thanks for sharing. (But the story would be slightly better if you had been from Wisconsin. Oh well, no one's perfect.)
-
Contact the owner and make him aware of the situation. He or she should be the one that deals with it.
-
I'm surprised she said anything for fear she might provoke a violent confrontation in the wrong person.
As for doing the right thing if you didn't see any signs, you didn't see any signs.
As far as I'm concerend this whole state has a problem with proper signage.
-
Bull, we both know dam well what you are going to do. There is no way you are going to pass up brats and beer and all those great people from Wisconsin standing around bragging about how great Wisconsin is. We will miss you. We could probably round up some brats and beer but would have a hard time finding anyone to brag about Wisconsin. Dick from the Sucker State of Illinois
You are a wise man.

I was having the same problems. I just tried again and it worked fine.
Maybe the glitch was fixed.

If I haven't went up with my friend who claims he really wants to go but won't commit to a date by then, I'll join you as well.
