Adirondack bbq

[king tut]

I was hoping to hop over the pond and make a rare appearance, but i am afraid my gimp knee and other plans may get in the way. If you stumble across a hungover, limping person in the Daks on saturday, it might be me. Look for the goofy looking *******.

Visitors

I believe the fee for visitors is $2.00 per day according to the sign posted at the office.

 

[Paradox]

Sooooo...hikes. Paradox and I are planning to grab a couple of Great Range peaks on Friday. Haystack and Basin, most likely, although I'll try to convince him to throw Saddleback in the mix too...

Rebecca

Sounds good to me!

If the weather is cooperative Jim C. and myself are going to climb the Trap Dike if anyone would like to join.

 

[Paradox]

If the weather is cooperative....

The weather channel gives us reason to hope. Today partly cloudy is forecast for the coming Friday and Saturday.

Regarding the Magic Pines:

Is there a bear safe place to store an ice chest with food on Friday and Saturday?

I will keep my fingers crossed

In your car

As far as I know the Eastern Black Bear in the ADK has not figured out how to break in a car yet

Okay sure, but I was hoping for a place that might be cooler during the day.

 

[Peakbagr]

If your car has a trunk should not be much warmer than ambient outside temp. Hope to see you there on Saturday.

Under you car out of the sun????

 

[Fat Tuesday]

I think I'd like to hike with the crew on Friday and Sunday (something short on Sun) and kayak or canoe on Sat, but it will have to be somewhere where I can rent a boat and put-in. If anyone is interested in attempting a paddle on Sat, shoot me a message!

 

[peakbagger]

Looks like I can make it over this year. I will be arriving Friday evening and will be looking for a hike on Saturday. If anyone is up for company on a 12 to 16 miler with a view, let me know. Long roadwalk or partial bushwhack I am flexible.

 

[sdg75]

I will be coming along with 1ADAM12 and plan on a solo trip up Dix via the trailhead on Rt 73 on Saturday if anyone wants to join me. I'm not a fast hiker and like to take my time. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Regrettably, I am not going to be able to attend. I've confirmed that I do not have any more vacation time available, so I wouldn't even be arriving until after midnight Friday night and would have to spend Sunday driving home. I just can't justify it, and have too much to do at home as well.

Hopefully there will be more opportunities in the future to see those of you I usually only see at the ADK BBQ!

Can you be persuaded to join Fran and me on Macomb and the other Dixes instead?

I have my sights set on Dix. I am planning to finish the 46 this year and only need Dix, Haystack, Basin, and Big Slide. If it wasn't for my distance from the Adirondacks and wanting to finish this year I could have been persuaded.

If you buy him a case of UBU I am sure he can be persuaded

 

[sdg75]

That could work but don't give it to me before the hike or I would bail and stay at camp and drink the beer instead of hiking.
