SoCal "Survival" Hike, May 23rd.

Jason, I would be willing to pay the $20 but you see i would need to take pics.. Then i would need to post the pic on here for the befinit of everyone else at WSS. Im sure you would be proud to have most of them flooting around the net...

If you think that would be the most incriminating pic of me floating around you'd be way way off. Remind me to tell you a story...ask about the flower pot. :)
 
Im in! So which trail are taking? I run upper winter creek to hoeges and back its like 6-7 miles round trip. Alcohol? Dogs? REI parking lot at 8 still?, the best idea.
 
REI at 0800 (need address), Hike 10ish miles while playing with knives, find a place to booze up, go home, booze up, sleep. mmmmmmmm....
 
:D... and my wife just got me a >>>><<<< i forgot the name but it's used to put booze in it :D... we might have some irish coffee with my hobo stove... :D :D :D :D

For me, it will not be an easy hike. I'm not drinking anything but water. :)

Dogs are fine. I've taken mine.

Here's the trail we'll take: Start at "Chantry Flat." Follow the orange line to where it meets the blue line (Sturtevant Camp). Follow the blue line to Hoegees Camp. From there we can choose to take the nicer, but tougher, trail (yellow line) or the easier but less pretty trail (red line) back to the Chantry Flat.

I like the two options on the end of the hike. We get pushed for time or someone's knee/hip/ankle/lungs/whatever starts to act up, then the short easy end-hike is available.

Yeah, I wish one of the two options was short and easy, but it's really more of a choice between longer and easier vs. shorter and harder. The yellow trail follows a stream downhill to the lowest part of the whole hike, but then you need to climb uphill along a paved road that's pretty dang steep (very steep if you're already tired) to the parking lot. The red trail has a bit of an uphill right at the start, but then it's all downhill to the parking lot. It is longer than the yellow trail, but the uphill part is quite a bit less.
 
Let's plan on taking a nap about half way through ;)

Watch out for Sasha, he's going to want to spoon.

Let me see we going to go on a 10 miles hike. There is a chance that someone wife might get tired and grumpy. Then some guy is going to hand her a large knife to carry??????? I think i rather walk out in the back just in case.
Carspidey bring your friends i think we are going to have more fun and great time then a barrel full of spider monkeys.
