Well maybe not charcoal, seeing how open fires prohibited.

Any idea how the Sherbie is holdin up?

i would think, that given teh conditions at wildcat, and the fact that the hojo's stake is at about 80", that the sherbie is in fine shape and will be for a long, long time.

The way to provision a Ticks trip is for everyone to bring enough stuff to feed themselves(including one luxury food item) and then mix and match at dinner..

Maybe one stove for every 3 people

If I can swing the dates, I'll be there for sure. Sounds like fun.

I know it's hard to set a day, but to put stake in the ground, I'm going to aim for 4/18-4/20. Anyone else?

andyzee · Mar 26, 2008, 12:00 PM

Anyone?

Or for Greg's sake, bump

At first I post this on the "What are you doing thread" then realized I'd be better off putting it here. I'm still planning on Tux 4/18 and need equipment for an overnighter, as well as for hiking in snow. For now I'm considering the items listed, good prices at Sierra, and will still be looking for crampons. Any thoughts from you old pros?
