Description


This will be a repeat of a trip we all did last year.And we all had a great time and had some great food the Trail map by the states 15.7 miles and I thought it was more like 12 miles maybe I'm wrong.Once again this will be a trip you could either hike in or canoe in.I will be canoeing in myself.

Friday Night we can camp at the campground who ever could get down first could get us a spot and then divide up as ususal for the fee I think it cost $5 to get in the gate and they will be open then so we'll have to pay hte gate fee.

Saturday Morning we can head over to Celina Lake and boaters can head over and grap the good campsite on the hill.You can start your hike at any point and I'm sure we could get someone to drop you off if you don't want to hike the whole loop.This is a great little lake to paddle no matter what your skill level is although the fishing was dead when we were there last year.But we didn't starve we had some great food and maybe we can organize that again as it gets closer to the trip.

Sunday we will hike and boat out and then head over to the Overlook restaurant where they have great food super great service and the best thing they allow GUIDE DOGS.Mariposa I'm sure Jake will make the trip.He has told that story a hundred times and I'm sure he would do it again.

It was a real fun trip last time and my weekends are booked up thru the summer this maybe the first time I get to see you all unless something cancels out and I can sneak in a trip.Hope everyone can make it.
