I'm going to bring fresh salmon that I caught the night before while ice fishing on the north pole.

I remember that...

So we're about 3 weeks out!  Should we begin the food discussion?  Are we pot lucking it, or are we on our own?

 I can bring MRE's if you want??

Sounds fun!  Let me bring my dried cow dung so we can carry fire along with us from camp to camp!

 I'm somehow thinking this is going to be a really fun trip......

What the heck Duffman? First the Winter Mojave Rd and now Cerro Gordo. I'm seeing a distinct pattern here......

Nilda has him on a short leash.  I hear some guys like that sort of thing!

Yesterday I spoke with Robert, one of the caretakers at Cerro Gordo and they will be expecting us Monday (Memorial Day) at around 10 a.m.  They will open the buildings up and give us a tour.  He says the nights have been down in the high 30s, low 40s but it should be warming up.  There is not much snow left and it should be gone when we get there.  They are all set for supplies so he suggested at least a $10/vehicle donation would be appreciated.  I think we should step it up to $20 per vehicle.

$20 donation sounds great to me. Especially since they're going above and beyond to give us a grand tour.  I can't wait!

I also just noticed I'm listed as "+2" on the list. It will just be the wife and I, so please change to +1. We are also staying at the Comfort Inn on Friday night and will be in the Lone Pine area most of the day on Friday exploring. As far as comms, I'm HAM only these days. It's too hard to juggle two microphones on the trail, so no CB for me.

[CAWoody]

I'm still in, please add a +1 to mine.
