Other places down here you sign in and out.

To go through the gorge floor you will also have to get wet. When I went there Thursday, they told us that we couldn't go because it was to wet... :blink:

You don't need a pass to go around the gorge. All the pictures that I've shown never needed the pass. I have never gotten the pass though it lets you go to the very bottom where there is no safety railing. And if that isn't good enough, there's also some other trails in the area.

I hope this has not died out. Was really excited about this trip. I have plenty of questions on wild edibles. Bring your thinking caps!

No, it's still going on. I think we were waiting to see if anyone else voted for the date they wanted.

Soon as CBS closes the poll we will begin to talk more in depth about it.

Thanks for the update roar-k

BUMP!

By the way, the poll says it has been closed without a winning date.

Yeah that means we need to for CBS to make the decision final so we can start making plans.

So please PM him and bug him until he posts. =)

Seems like a good group of people. Now if we can just get Rick to follow the wrong directions....

Just remembered that I will not be able to do May 1-2. I will be participating in Relay For Life on April 30 and may not get any sleep. Don't think it matters since no one voted for that date, but just a heads up.

Anyone okay with just saying May 15,16 and run with it. Someone can pm CBS let him know. Roar-k if you want you can tell Rick its going to be April 17,18. lol

Everyone ok with May 15 and 16?

If you like you could get there on Friday the 14th as well.

As far as I know, I can do that weekend. I may even be able to get there on Thursday the 13 after work. But that might be pushing too much on the other attandees.

To those of you going or at least thinking about going is there any specific thing you want to do? By this I mean we can work on skills, go hiking, go fishing, just eat all day and hang out.

It would be awesome to get a few people that can show how to pick out wood for making a bow drill and then how to use it, maybe someone that can do plant identification, and so on.

I can possibly make it down on that Friday. I am 100% good on the fishing part. Everything else is good to.

I am potentially available that weekend. I will know more the closer we get.

There's only a few skills that I'm somewhat decent at. It's about limited to eating and sleeping. So I'm open for learning. I'm definitely game for the eating. I might not look like much, but I sure can put it away.

I will put this on my calendar and see what happens. A day trip may be my only choice since it's baseball, turkey, and trout season.

You guys have a blast and take plenty of pictures.
