I'll most likely be there for both (heck, I would probably be up there anyway). But, I really can't be specific right now since I'm currently in Boston and don't have access to my calander. I'll check for sure when I get back..
On a side note, I've kind of been tossing around the idea of getting a group site down around the CCC lot for a pre-curser to one of these two. Anyone possible interested?

Chris,
You can count me in on the one in September for sure.
Brad,
I may be interested in the prelude to a climbing party by Chris.

In reply to: Steve, I think this is a good idea and I would even like to participate, but do you really think August is best? It has got to be the hottest, most humid, most slippery time to climb at Devils Lake. How about a more temperature (and slime factor) friendly time? Curt
Yeah, some time that it is not too, hot, humid, rainy, cold or snowy in the Midwest...which narrows it down to the second week of September.

Jay,
Chris has one planned for August and September. I agree with Curt on the August trip. If I went, it would only be for the party.
He's got one planned for late September. That should work for everyone.

Mike,
We do have dates. Chris (quickclips has set them up).
In reply to: Again we have 2 dates right now one Aug 14-18 and another Sept 18-22.
Just so you know. I won't be at the August gathering. I don't think too many will due to the temperature, humidity, and slimey rock (again, due to humidity). Chris should still get a decent turn out for it. I'll be at the September gathering.

Depending on when the you'll be at the CCC I might join you there too. Right now i'm working mon-fri, but I'm gonna try and get those fridays off. We'll see what happens.
The reason I did one in Aug. also is its before the colleges start so I figured more students would be able to go. And then Sept for the good weather.

I "plan" on getting up to Devils Lake whenever the opportunity arrises. I haven't been there yet - but I'm about 3 hours away.
For a Sep gathering, would you all get a group site or something? I guess camping space up there is in high demand.

i'll be there for both.
i might try to leave cole at home for one or the other. i'm not sure what's worse...being awakened by an obnoxious donkey or a psycho four year old crowing "cockle-doodle-doo" two inches from your face.
:shock: :D

Ok what do we have so far. Let me know if you're in for Aug, Sept or both. I should let Kay know about how many.

Sh*t! I may not be there for either. Well, I said I wouldn't for August. Too damn hot for camping.
September may be out now, too. I may be heading to South Dakota for a week-long climbing trip from the 19th or 20th through the 28th. I'll keep ya posted and see what can be arranged. Honestly, if the choice comes between granite and smooth Wisconsin quartzite, I'm pickin' granite. :D

I don't think it will ever be to late to say you're coming I just want to know about how many will be showing up to each so I can tell Kay at green valley how big of/how many sites we need.
Steve, what do you mean you can't make it now?!?!?

Hey!! Ill be able to make it to both for 2-3 days(maybe more). I may be +1 if the womanfriend decides to join me. She's not totally into bailing on classes so who knows. Either way it should be a wicked awesome time...Im looking forward to it.

Climb on!

I'm there! Probably for only two of the days. Hope no one minds teaching an old dog new tricks.

Ok so I've got a lot of people looking at September, but August is almost here, so who's in for August? PM me and let me know. Green Valley Camp Ground is on the West side of HWY 12 about a 1/2 mile North of Ski High Road. It's on the way down a hill before a big right turn (if you're coming from the South.) The woman who runs the place's name is Kay. I'll be getting there on Thursday night.

Well.. I'll definitely be there for both. Coming up Friday night, and leaving Sunday evening. If there are people staying around either the day before or after, there might be something I can do to stay the extra day. :wink: Chances are I'll be staying at the Adventure Rock portion of the camp ground, but it's not like that really matters. The girlfriend should be coming up in the evening on Saturday..
..but, anyone willing to share a lead line on Saturday?

Well, I think I may be able to make it for part of the August gathering, but I won't know till last minute.. I would shoot for coming out early thursday or early friday - will it be a problem either getting my own site or sharing a site (group site?)

Chris,
Sorry about me not being able to make it, but it's a choice between Devil's Lake and the slippery quartzite I can barely climb and a road trip to South Dakota on really good granite I can climb with relative ease. I haven't had a road trip in a long time, so I'm goin' for it.
Sorry, man. I really wanted to come out and party with everyone, but the road is a callin'!
