FYAO X Location...

“Any word from Gremlin..............besides "HORNEE"?”

“What else do we need to hear from Gremmypoo, eh?

He'll be there, unlike some other peteple, he never bails. ;)”

“Uh huh.....and what about that not-so-adventurous guy?”

“Anybody have maps?!? I never hike without maps.”

“If AmyG has no map then we are sunk.”

“I'll email you a map Euro hike.”

“Hey thanks, zac. Someone has to make sure that MarkO and Gremlin don't get lost in the woods. I will get 'em there.”

“I'll try and get it to you some time tonight.”

“I'll email you a map Euro hike.”

What about me?

What am I, chopped liver?”

“Send one to Gremlin while you're at it.

Euro, you will be my light in the darkness.......my fog horn in the mist.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-Oooooooooooooooo!!”

“...fog horn?!”

“Well.....maybe more like a song bird to guide me through the wild land.

Hee-hee!

Some of the guys are more like fog horns.”

“MarkO, I'd send you a map, but you wouldn't follow it anyway. ;-)”

“I usually follow AmyG's trail of crumbs in the snow.”

“Well, crumbs didn't work for H�nsel und Gretel.”

“What about a trail of tears?

No worries, I can find this one without a map.

“We're going to Oklahoma?”

“My, my... I have less than a week to get everything ready for this trip. I am getting very nervous. Last night I woke up and couldn't sleep anymore, because I was worried about all the things and essential gear I might forget. Considering the fact that I have to borrow half of the equipment from MarkO and Gremlin there is a huge potential to screw up.”

“Euro, we gotta talk. You need to learn some respect for the elderly (and the experienced).”

“Euro, just give Gremlin a bottle of Merlot and you should be able to take all of his gear.”

“Teach me some respect Friday next week.”

“Oonga boonga, baby, eh?”

“You need to learn some respect for the elderly.

Yup, that guy.”

“" I say I say, 'at boys about as sharp as a bowlin ball" - Foghorn Leghorn”

“Ha ha ha ha ha!!!”

“JS you hit that one right

Which day are ya'll doing the peak?

Anyone staying Sunday nite?

Thinkin bout heading up”

“coco...we usually end up doing the peak on Saturday, since a lot of people hike out on Sunday. Some years, it varies, but that has been the norm.

I am going up Friday late-afternoon to get settled in at camp....hike all day Sat and maybe Sunday too, if others are game. I like to hike out with the group when possible....we usually do a nice breakfast all together and it is quality family time. :)”

“Just don't play with your food and sit up straight at the breakfast table.”

“Euro....everybody always seems to bring wayyyyy too much and there is always something forgotten. No worries, just enjoy!!
:)”

“Euro hook up with Fridge...he has a heater in his tent.”

“In that case I rather hook up with heater than with fridge.
:-)”

“Fridge got his name because he sometimes carries a pack that is as big as a refrigerator.

Sincerely, MarkO
Snowed bound in Baltimore”

“I expect we will see Sacco as usual.”

Sometimes??? How bout every time!?”

“Is Fridge coming to FYAO? He's not on the list.”

“I don't know if he will join us this time but it would be fun if he could.”

“Amy, probably heading up early Sat AM, but really looking for some more snow to play in.

Might end up at back in the Whites at Lonesome Lake and snowshoe Cannon Mtn instead. Yankee Beech and I have Monday off.”

“fridge said he prolly won't make it to FYAO. He is going to spend time with his sweetheart.”

“Are you sled dogs really going to drag your sleds in the dirt?”

“Good question. I got my sled out of the shed because I just might need it for the extra gear I'm bringing Euro, but if there's not enough snow we'll need a plan B.

MY ETA Friday is between 14:00 and 15:00.

We should be all right among the three of us.”

“Hey, I should carry my own stuff.

...a little help will be appreciated though..
:-)”

“I have no sled but my rucksack is BIG.”

“I don't have a lot of time - my buddy and I are off to cut up some road kill.

Euro's flight was cancelled and she has booked a flight to-morrow. What with the conditions in Baltimore this is a good thing as it gives MarkO (and me) an extra day. Unless there are further changes we should meet at railhead Saturday noon.

Please see my Tee shirt thread.”

“Did they all freeze?”

“It's hard to sit and type at a computer when you have no ass to sit on.”

“We made it home Ok. I had an awesome time. Even with having to self arrest with my face after having a few too many. LOL. Thanks for putting it all together AmyG.”

“I missed the fun stuff. Although hiking the ice road in the dark was interesting.”

“Driving the ice road in a RAV4 was probably not the smartest move I've ever made. Good thing I am such an exceptional driver.
;)

My computer is acting up and I can't get my pics together, so hopefully some other slacker will post a TR???

Another great trip...thanks everyone. This trip has almost become like a yearly family reunion.
:)”

“Anybody have pictures??”

“Nope, you should have went. :-D”
