Spring Knik Run?

[TonyM]

If the weather holds warm like it's been, I'd like to do an overnighter out at Knik the weekend of the 10th (Sat to Sunday). I imagine the temps at night will get down to 30+ overnight, but thats pretty reasonable IMO.

If you are interested, post up... I would like to head out early saturday (noon or so), go setup camp out passed wolf point a bit near the tree line, and continue out to the glacier, do some shooting maybe?, then head back to camp... do the camping thing (Food, beers, fire, etc.) and head out Sunday after a nice day of sleeping in a bit and a good breakfast.... :40:

There will still be snow on the ground, so be sure to bring a good size tarp to put under your tent (If you are tenting it), unless you have a 4 season tent. If you guys kick in for a good dinner, I'll make sure Breakfast is not to be missed :nono:

I got everything to cook... you guys just need to figure out what you want to cook... burgers, steaks, dogs, fettuccine, mac and cheese, a turkey, chicken nuggets, chilli, roast, duck, moose anything, etc. It don't matter, if it can be cooked, it will be cooked, and it will be amazing. :party:

Well... if the weather stays good for a week or so, most of that should be gone. There will still be snow for sure in the tree line, but creeks and such should start opening up... if it still shitty out there next weekend, we'll wait till the following weekend I guess :cheers2:

[back-to-doo]

EVEN THOUGH I REALLY DISLIKE JIM CREEK SILT ....

IF the date is the week-end of the 17th we might be down ...

It'll be the 'official' change of seasons for us!

[Grape Ape]

THis Still happening?:toetap05:

[akwheelin78]

Yea. What is the finial word? I need to get packing soon if we are still going. If not thats cool but I have to get some other plans going for this weekend (wifes birthday and all...).

[TonyM]

Its on as long as it doesn't dump a rediculous amount of snow Thur Fri or Sat... What you say... meet at the parkinglot at 1pm?

[Jhon]

This is a little reminder to appreciate summer, cause winter is coming..
:smilewinkgrin:

[Grape Ape]

jim creek parkin lot or palmer carrs parkin lot?

[akwheelin78]

sounds good. 1pm will give us some time to see if its going to rain on Sat...:(

[TonyM]

OK... so as of now this is on. WEATHER PERMITTING! I am not going out there to sit under a tarp with it being rainy/windy and 40*.

If it's looking good Saturday at noon... then head out. I'll be at the pavilion parkinglot at around 1 if weather holds. If weather is not decent, then we'll plan for next weekend. :cryin:

[TonyM]

Can we get a head count for this? I'd like to know if we need to wait for anyone at the parking lot.

So far:
Dan in the fodge
Jesse and fam in the Bronco
Myself and a cooler of beer
George will be heading out on Sunday

[akwheelin78]

As far as food I am just going to throw a bunch of good stuff in a cooler... I will have my full kitchen set-up. I dont think starvation will be a cocern on this trip. Oh and beer...

[TonyM]

OK... you make us dinner (It better be epic or you lose your dinner making slot ever again :31:), and I'll make us breakfast.... :willy_nilly:

[akwheelin78]

Just a few more things to load up. Including the "epic dinner" :) This will be a great trip.
