OK, is this going to be like last year,: spend the first night at the top, eat, drink, eat, drink and talk s#*t around the fire, then the next day do a hike in the gorge and return to basecamp for another night of eating, drinking and talking s#*t? Or will we be doing more hiking and less eating?
I am happy with either, I just need to know what to expect so I will know how to prepare myself and my QUEEN if she goes.

It will be a basecamp as it was last year and probably will from now on BUT Moonshine and I are going to set up two hikes...One is going to be STRENUOUS and the other is going to be an A$$KICKER!!!The later may have us finishing the hike going up the "PINCH IN TRAIL"!!!




MildBill the key word for this trip is MORE of everything!!!

Creekdancer...Bring the Dutch Oven!!!

I think he is kidding. A year or so ago I made the comment not to drink the water from the linville river in the gorge or eat the fish and was laughed off the thread.
