    I've marked my calender and should be there (probably hike in Sat morning). I WILL NOT need a pass, I have an annual. It'll be good to meet everybody!

    always been a little envious seeing how well the norcal guys organize these trips, great to see the other regions doing this.

    I would love to go, but being a new dad makes my time management dicey. If I attend, no pass as I have an annual. Thanks for putting this together!

    Hey Kevin,

    I plan to attend. I'll be hiking in late in the afternoon on Saturday as I'm tied up Friday night/Saturday morning helping run support duty for an ultramarathon race in SB.

    I've got my own annual pass so no worries on parking for me.

    Cheers,

    Nick

    I can go backpacking that weekend but would need to carpool.

    Otherwise I'd love to go on an adventure in SoCal

    A friend and I are interested, we would like to carpool and live near Sacramento (Davis). Only available for Sat and Sun, will that work for anyone?

    I've been out of the loop lately, good to see this thing is coming together.

    Unfortunately thats the weekend before my family leaves for Portland for a week, so I dont think i can make it. Of course, thats what I said about the last BPL meetup and I managed to show up somehow. Hopefully something changes and I'll be able to make it.

    This month is turning out to be a campoing extravaganza, Im backpacking this thursday – Sat (breaking in my nephew, his first real trip) then the week of the 17th I'm headed to central Oregon for a week, and the following week is the BPL trip? Damn!!! I want to make it out, just not sure, but I will try at least for a one nighter!!

    Ben you're not going to make it to the Lost Coast trip? Should be a nice one. I thought it was the same weekend, if not I might try to make that one also.

    Cool looking tarp! Very stealth.

    I'll be either tarping it or cowboy camping. Good chance you might be camping on sand around Bear Canyon so plan accordingly for stakes or just plan on using sticks/rocks as deadman anchors.

    If you don't bring a bivy, you might want at least a headnet, the mosquitoes/flies can be a bother around the creek sometimes in the spring.

    Should be nice out there! Lots of water this year, warm daytime temps, mild evenings typically.

    Jack it's a sticky situation. I have mandatory work the weekend of this trip (also the weekend that I have a lottery ticket to Coe backcountry) and a wedding this coming weekend. Making both would be ideal–but making none is the reality this early season for me. Go in my place please sir.
