A good center point would probably be "South Of Eastwood" GCYNR7.

Remember Nick is out of town and won't be answering any e-mail until he gets back so don't get too anxious if you aren't getting any replies.

Are there any kids coming to this. I have invited my nephew that is in the 13/14 Y.O. range and he wants to know if he would be the only kid there.

This one has been on my list for a very long time but I already have a hike planned for that day. I'm thinking I may try to get it either on the way to or an the way back from the Cache Machine thats supposed to happen in Sept.

I'm not allowed to plan anything during the middle of September as my new Grandson is supposed to be showing up about then.

We will be spending the week after the campout and the following weekend on the Olympic Peninsula. I am also hoping to take the ferry to Victoria for an overnighter but I need to have a place to park our tent trailer while we are in Canada. Any one out there between Port Townsend and Port Angeles have a parking spot we could use for couple of days?

I beleive GPSBABLE will convert gpx files to vcf files.

You're right here's a picture of me in after making it up to Camp Muir.

Maybe one of these years I'll be able to make that hike, but not in the near future. Looks like you all had fun though...OK, maybe not LR... A few of those pictures would be great on the Banners... This may not have been one of the funnest hikes I have ever done, okay the up part, the glissading down was incredible butt was not with out it's consequences, but is is something that I will never forget and was a great accomplishment for me. The sunburn is not real fun today and my calves are are pretty sore too.

We can add reijojo to the definate list along with me. This is my brother-in-law. He has accompanied me to many caches but just now finally signed up on the site himself. Add me to the definite list.

N47 48.549 W121 34.442 should get you into the parking lot.

I'm still a maybe

Here's another for your list. Mount McDonald The Lookout tower is long gone but there are still some footings and the area now has microwave towers. There is supposed to be a benchmark there also but I think it was either destroyed or burried when the microwave towers were installed.

I'm a maybe on this I really want to do it but not sure I'm up to the challange. If I go I will probably head up the night before and just sleep in the back of the Land Rover.

I don't see Tolmie Peak on the list. I know it is a virtual but I also see that you have included Mt. Adams View which is also a virtual.

Bringing your own food is the only way of guaranteeing that you get to eat! I usually bring something for lunch, but will gladly chuck it if a better opportunity comes along. There is that Starbucks about 15 mile up the Middel Fork road at the corner of nowhere and obscurity.

But Summer hasn't even started yet. I guess you'll have to come up with a new Summer goal.

95% chance I'm in. Just have to get one more coat of paint on the walls tomorrow afternoon. I do need to be back somewhat early, 4ish or so. I still have lots of trim to get up and I need to dig the refrigerator we bought 3 years ago, that's still in the box, out of the garage, I know it's in there someplace.

Why is it that if someone spray paints a rock it's grafitti, but if an Indian draws a stick figure on a rock it's a historic artifact. Do you think way back when the indians mom grounded the kid for writing on the cave walls? hmmmmmmmmmm.

I've got one up there too, and a lot more have sprung up since I put it there. Anyone up for this weekend? I would like to go but it depends on how much I get done around the house this week. I didn't get everything I needed to get done over the holiday weekend and there's no way I'm getting out again until it's done.

And he looks so happy about it.... Way to go, Jeff! Wish I could have been there to congratulate you in person, but those eastern WA Bjornstad caches were callin'. Is that better?

Just doing the day thing, I had enough trouble getting permission for that.

I second that. Just ask my dog. When we hiked Colonel Bob with a group of cachers, he made it to the summit about an hour before I did. (The traitor.) But he waited for you at the top, didn't he? He knew who had the food. Yabut if I want to be there when speed demon Cathy finds the cache, either thry'll have to wait, or I have to start early...I've walked with these people before...they don't walk, they jog. not this time, if they do hurry, there will be a good sized group in the back. We could just tie a rope around her and me...that would keep her from going too fast. Wow my speeling is badd today. Slow and steady is my motto, although I usually have to remind myself of that a couple of times. Until the down hill part that is, then I have no problem keeping up. I guess sea level is my friend.

PM and Email on the way to you and Ray. I may be out of my mind, but I may just do the hike to the LS Mine cache too for the LR 2000th...but if I go I'll probably leave the trail head a little earlier so I don't hold anyone up. We'll see how I feel later. What the… Every HOM I’ve been on has been three or four hikers, tops. This is starting to sound like the kind of party I can’t resist. Follow the herd... Follow the herd.... I agree this is shaping up to be quite a group. I always want to make it to more of these hikes but usually I have something double booked that takes president. Glad I can make it this time. Anything needed for parking, like a NWFS pass? Cache page says a NWFS Pass is required.

What time do you plan on being a the TH? I'm going to be doing the Lake Serene Mine for my 2000th find. I will be carpooling with Poodleranch, Prying Pandora and Plaidguy.
