I'm a light weight. What can I say? I'll carry my own water and emergency supplies, just in case those aliens abduct you. Beam me up

Thanks for posting this Mike. Any takers on November or December? November might be a good time for Horton Springs, or something else in that area. Maybe Rogers Canyon in December?
I thought there were takers for Nov and Dec already? I'll check around and see if I can find anything.

Also... Isn't the beer festival in Flagstaff in August? Maybe we can move the August date to that weekend so after west fork we can head up there. (This was someone elses idea, but I forgot who suggested it)

I was doing the South Fork of Deer Creek in November, was I deposed? I've already spray painted the trail, and tied iridescent pink ribbons on important turns, (never trusted those cairns).

LOL, so you knocked down all the cairns? Good choice, Snicks! I think the iridescent ribbons will be a big winner! Where have you been? Mary

Okay. How about the Haunted Canyon overnight for Dec. Sounds good to me.

I put the WFW II thing for the first weekend in August. What weekend is the Beer fest?

I'm OK with switching Deer Creek to December, it really makes no difference.

Mary, I've been keeping a low profile, not so easy when your my size!

I put June in there because that area is going to change once they restore fossil creek. I've never been down there. I was hoping someone that has would step up. If not we may want to change it.
