“who you going with to the Winds”

“Hey buddy...
I'm gonna follow this thread and will likely be able to join ya!
I'm on my last day in Banff, Canada right now. Fantastic place! Get up here if you haven't already. Perhaps a week here next year is an option as well.

Rob”

“O Golfhiker......here it is second chance to go over the divide.
Oldog we rented a cab and then had him pick us up worked fine and was cheaper without need for a shuttle. I will be carring ice axe as well as crampons for this event. Yo bear!”

“It would be great to have you both on this trip as well as Golfhiker,this has been on my life list of places for a while . Rob, that is also a great idea about Banff as well . I'll be in California the 28th of this month so if your around I'll buy ya a beer”

“sign up ,while their is still room”

“Sam: This sounds quite nice. I'll mark it as a possible for next year....

Bear, I hear ya on the Divide. Ice Axe, who needs a stinkin Ice Axe. I hear you can get down faster if you just lean forward & let go....

Dog, keep posting information.”

“It would be a great time,You,Bear,and Rob. Rob and I hiked Glacier a few years back Oh and about 80 miles of the PCT/JMT”

“yes!”

“Hey buddy...

It's been awhile. How was the trip from Bishop Pass to Onion Valley on the JMT? You know, I did the reverse trip last year while you guys were on the southern portion in Evolution Valley.

I've been a little static on the hiking, although did go to Mammoth Lakes for 4 days last week. I've been doing a lot of kayak fishing in the Pacific lately.

I'm still in for this trip - it's still going on, right?”

“Of course it's still on,the JMT trip ,another WOW .I thank the views were the best so far the climb up to Dusy Basin was a butt kicker but the camp was one of the most beautiful yet
T has her pics up on smugbug and I have a few at http://www.webshots.com/user/oldog105?vhost=community”

“welcome aboard, this is shaping up to be a great trip”

“Olddoggie...
What do you think about planning for the Wonderland Trail sometime in the near future? I dont think you've done that yet, have you?
Maybe 2011?
I really want to go a well-prepared trip to Alaska sometime in the next couple years or so too ;)”

“why don't you do the Wonderland in 2011, I'm in”

“What the hell? You mean I can't share my tuna with the bears?

;-)”

“that's what I'm bringing , hey! we just have to be able to run faster than Jer-bear”

“I can handle my Bear! LOL Run, Olddog lets race! Yo bear!”

“jerbear, did you guys fly into Jackson Hole”

“Sam: We flew from Dayton to Denver to Jackson Hole. Frontier Airline.”

“yes”

“I'm applying for the permit”

“How many you applying for? Yo bear!

“So - 2011 Wonderland Trail it is. Olddog, you and I will organize it if you like.

I'm still not certain about this trip. I will be in Snowmass in July for 12 days. With that said, I'm still going to try to join you. Just depends on where I'm living by then. I'll know over the next couple months.”

“We might do this route in the 3rd week in August. When is your trip oldog? We will be a handful of boy scouts and about the same number of leaders.”

“I would really like to join this trip but it looks like I'm on the waiting list. I'll keep waiting then.”

“sounds good ,on the Wonderland Trail, Bob I applied for the Teton Crest trail for August 28thru Sept 4 .Gooral send me your E-mail ,I'll keep you on the list”

“I was talking about the TCT. I didn't know there is a permit system there, so I guess I'd better get moving. If we can't do the Teton Crest, we'll do something in the Winds. It will probably be 3 scouts, and about that many adults.”

“Oldog, signed up for trip. I believe gooral and golfhiker are going to sign up also. so please, put us down for the permits and have a backup list. I have sent out an email to gooral and asked him to sign up. Will be a great trip. Yo bear!”

“Sam, I'm in... what about Bosco?”

“Glad your in,and no Bosy can't go

“for the planned route, gooral, backpacker send me your e-mails at scorbin9579@sbcglobal.net

“yo bear!”
