The Plan

  • “Something like 3-5 miles out to a site, camp for a weekend.” - Eric
  • take Friday off from work, meet up before Noon Friday, drive up as a group. - Eric

Travel

  • Jetta, seats 4, room for stuff in trunk, biodiesel - Julia
  • VW Golf, seats 4, biodiesel - nentis

Gear

  • I have a decent backpack, a 4-6 person tent, a collapsible shovel, and a small folding table (1'x1') - Eric
  • Camp stove, water filter, 2-person tent, lightweight sleeping pads, all sorts of random stuff (we basically have what we need and are willing to share)- Julia
  • also I can rent gear from PSU at the student/Staff rate - Eric

Chatter

  • How about July 10th - 12th? - Julia
  • Sadly the only weekend I could go is the first weekend of July which is the 4th. - Michael
  • Ugh, that's like the most camped weekend of the year (probably Labor Day is a close second, oh, and Memorial Day…). Well, I guess if we go out far enough it won't be too crowded. - Julia
  • 4th of July? Hm. We should try someplace in Eastern Oregon or SE Washington to get far enough away. - nentis
  • I am good for the 3rd weekend in June and all of July. - Eric
  • June would be better for me. If not to allow another hike in July. :) - nentis
  • Summer starts on Jun 12th for me, but Josh can't go Jun 19th - 21st (aikido seminar), which I guess is the June weekend that works for Eric. Erg. - Julia
  • well if June is out then lets try for the 4th so that Michael can go. and to note July 24-26 is out since that is the big beer festival. - Eric
  • Yeah, I'm with Eric. Most people will be car camping that weekend anyway, so we should be fine. I'll organize some day hike / geocaching in June for people who need an earlier wilderness fix. I guess that leaves August for the Camping Trip. - Julia
  • Hey guys. Matt and I are interested, but it might be tricky getting him out of work July 4 weekend. We'll try though. I don't think July 4 will be that bad to go on this kind of trip because we'll be hiking away from the traditional tourist traps. Otherwise… yeah. Sounds like an awesome idea. - Shasta
  • Should we do two camp trips? One on the July 4th weekend so that Michael can go, and the other either June 19 - 21 or July 17 - 19? Then everyone has a chance to go :) - Julia
  • I can make the June 19 - 21 if everyone else can. - Michael
  • Ok, I make a motion to put this weekend to a vote…All in favor of Jun 19 - 21 say “aye”. I think we should go again sometime in July too. - Julia
  • Bueller? Bueller? - Ben Stein
  • I say the 4th. -Michael
  • L O L - Julia
  • I am game for any of the weekends though i think if we push it back into July we are more likly to have a DRY weekend. - Eric
  • The only problem i see for the 4th is getting a propane powered blender and ice for margaritas. - Joel
  • Joel, you've got to think outside the box here…battery-powered hand-held drink mixer and camping on Mt. Jefferson where there is still snow! - Julia
  • i swear the there is a hand crank magarita mixer thing out on the market. - Eric
  • I will be out of country July 3rd-12th - Eric
  • AYE for the June 19-21 - Eric
  • Ah ha, now we are getting somewhere…anyone else? - Julia
  • Yikes. I just scheduled the Scouting Trip the weekend of the 19th. Let me ponder this. - nentis
  • I just noticed that too…um, can they be combined? - Julia
  • @nentis: You need to find a day planner app for your iphone and write stuff in it! :P - Julia
  • Lets try for June 19-21. I will attempt to move up the camping trip scouting. - nentis
  • Yay :) - Julia
  • Ok, is this still happening? I need to know because the 21st is father's day and I want to make plans with him. - Julia
  • Seems this may have run out of gas, probably need to move back the date since it does fall on Father's day and I am pretty sure noone is ready. - Joel
