[FAL'ER]

I'll bring the plywood backer.

 

[Jonny1280]

Will there be any chainsaw? I can bring mine but it’s little and old

I’m sure Awesome-O will bring his saw again. If not, I’ll bring mine.

 

[Bill Siegle]

See y’all tomorrow!!!! I’m hoping for an early morning but I’m not gonna push it. I’d like to be in by noon.

 

[pease]

Jon and I are going to try to be on the road by 10 so about 12 also

 

[Jonny1280]

Me and Awesome-O should be there around 1ish. I think most everybody else is shooting for 12-1.
See you all tomorrow. Can’t wait!

 

[trailbum]

Hope you all have a great weekend.

 

[Tdhurl1103]

Headed out now.

Reminder that I won't be showing up until Friday, hopefully mid-dayish.

Travel safely!

Super fun weekend!
I’m home and unpacked and cleaned up.

Thanks to everyone who came out!
Huge thanks to OFFICIAL_KA-BAR for hooking us up with prizes for all the competitions!

I’ll get some pics posted up tonight sometime.

Made it home safe and sound, truck is unloaded, and the tent is drying in the sun! I had an absolute BLAST!!!! Great Friends and great food! Of course lots of scenery and cutlery too! I didn’t get many pics due to having a lot of fun and staying busy Thanks to all the folks who made it out. Miss you all already! Big THANK YOU to Ethan and KaBar for the big box of swag and prizes! We had some challenging contests that were a lot of fun! Thanks to Tom for organizing those. BTW flint and steel fire contests in damp conditions will surely challenge the players. Here are a few pics from my phone to enjoy

omg, who has that loooong ponytail?? I'm jealous!

 

[Tdhurl1103]

There were a few firsts:

My first flint and steel fire. (It was amazing!)
An Army guy got beat out by an Air Force guy in the BB gun shootout.(Yeah, it happened!)
A leaf blower becomes the King of Tools for the weekend.(who knew?)
Breakfast burritos from the camp chef (why didn't we figure this out sooner?)
Natty Lite makes a great target to shoot at.(nuff said)

I had a great weekend with everyone. Thanks to everyone who put this together and KA-BAR for the prizes and swag!

The owner of the amazing ponytail also had the distinction of sticking three hawks in one throw.

As several have already noted, it was a great time!
A wee bit warmer than the last, but we did get some downpours...

Thanks to all who came, esp those that worked so hard to make it enjoyable.
And a big nod to Ethan and KA-BAR.
