other guys going on the idaho trip

“hey guys i was just wandering if any of you had myspace pages so we could talk before the trip”

“no that i've talked to some of you maybe this isn't allowed. lol”

“lots of times there are threads that open in the trip pages that do not appear on Trail talk. A lot of planning goes on that way.”

“only guys can go on the trip?

No girls allowed?”

“what do ya mean stomper i don't think it's only for guys but heck what do i know”

“the thread says "other guys going on the Idaho trip" I thought maybe you were trying to ban girls.”

“sorry”

“hey stomper want to crash the party late at night? we can sneek in and make scary noices and scare the heck out of them..

that will learn them”

“ahhhhhhh!!! I feel so lost and confused?!?!”

“I'm always up for a road trip!

Girl power!”

“lost and confused seems to be the norm around here. You'll do fine”

“I get so confused.

”

“I think I love everybody here already, but I really don't know why.”

“Hi, Troll.
For a "newbie", he/she sure figured out The Trip Page fast.”

“Did you notice the fake double post on the 2 word thread stove? LOL!

Never saw a double post 3 minutes apart ...”

“Had not seen that thread, Sarge.

“absolutely cant stand myspace. i probably wont be going anyways, as im leaning towards a two week trip in colorado, and spirit coyote always signs up, but then always bails. looks like its just gonna be you and oldfart”

“O.K. first of all I actually joined a while ago but never really did anything with it till now. Second of all in the two word thread I poseted once then I went back and didn't see it posted so i figured I did something wrong and posted it again. (There is a second page.☺)”

“Figured it was something like that. ☺”

“wrong thread”

“oh wait im on the wrong thread”

“that ok crash you just confused a bit i love you man”

“what is planned for the Idaho trip?”

“that ok crash you just confused a bit i love you man

seeing you on an actual backpacking thread would confuse anyone”

“ha ha you so funny i so confused how do i type”

“

“It's funny. The year we did the Beartooths, you'all did a trip to the Beartooths. The year we went to Alaska, there was a trip to the Kenai. This year we're probably going to Idaho, so what do I see but a trip to the Sawtooths. You'all have to quit following us!”

“Bump”

“How many miles a day?”

“6-9 miles per day with lots of photo-ops”

“I forgot that I signed up for this....I'm still interested though! But I'm still a maybe.”

“I was looking on the web here at some pictures the place looks very neat.”

“Pettite to Redfish, you’re going to love the Crammer Divide. You will pass near my favorite Sawtooth place, Tenlake Basin. Ardeth Lake is the big lake in the basin and is just west of Vernon, Edna and Virginia Lakes over the hill. This is a better route than going by Imogene Lake. Imogene is wonderful but typically more crowded and with less spectacular country (though still great) between it and Redfish. Take some cash and use the Redfish shuttle boat. It picks up at the inlet end of the lake every hour or so. It will save 5 mile of not so great of hiking on a busy dusty trail. That trail does have good views of Redfish but I now always use the shuttle to extend my time deeper into the wilderness. Check Redfish Lodge’s wed site for info. Have fun.

“bump, Idaho bob here it is”

“I've been to Toxaway and Imogene lakes, where are in the same general area, but never the nice lakes you are going by. My summer is pretty full with scout hikes, but I would like to try to squeeze this hike in. Its in wonderful country. Are you starting at Redfish or Petit?”

“Oldog, I'm in. The dates are perfect for me, and the area looks beautiful! Looking forward to it. Will the hike start pn Sat or Sun? I'm looking at airlines and need to know when to book flights. See ya!”

“This is Imogene lane, just over the hill from your route. The Tenlake Basin must be full of lakes like this. I've heard some have good great fishing.



This is Alice Lake, probably the first lake you hit if your route starts at Petit Lake.



Another view of Alice lake.


View of Sunnyside Lakes from Sunnyside pass, between Alice and Toxaway Lakes.

“idaho,

thanks for the pic's , now I'm really sieked”

“Correction, that is not Sunnyside Lakes, its Twin Lakes. You picked a great place for a long backpack. Are you starting at Redfish or Petit?”

“oldog, I got the itenery off the trip page doh! Still have some questions to hammer at ya. Jer
I would like to get a map of the area cant seem to locate one. But I will keep trying perhaps a guide book.”

“jerbear I have a good map of the Sawtooth area and several guides .
Idaho bob we will start at Pettit lake going out trail 095 and back on trail 096 going by Alice,Twin,Toxaway and Farley lakes and maybe a couple others if we're up to it”

“Oldog- I just was trying to get a map. I can not print the size of map on my puter. So ithought i would look at other resources. Hello”

“I'll get you the info from the map that I have ( Sawtooh Hike)
I still need to get a map for the Hells Canyon trip”

“Are you planning to take the trail to Sheep Lake in the Seven Devils? That lake is awesome and one of the bigger lakes in the area and surrounded by She Devil and He Devil Peaks and other nice peaks. You can get there by a 9 mile trail, which is a tough all day hike, or by a 2 mile shortcut that takes half a day. Both start at the same place. Interested?”

“how about that shortcut

tks”

“I like shortcuts!”
