When: Monday, November 22 at 6PM
Where: Scooter's Coffee - 63rd and Center (6303 Center Street)

Please join me for about 1/2 an hour to discuss possible dates and details for a summer backpacking trip to Glacier National Park.

This is not a commitment, just a chance to gauge interest, bat some ideas around, and get things going.

Please let me know if you think you'll make this meeting - and if you can't - if this trip might still be something you're interested in as the details emerge.

With questions - email debhoffnung@yahoo.com.

Thanks!

I haven't heard from anyone but Bill about being able to make this meeting on Monday at 6 PM to start knocking around ideas for Glacier....I'm going to change the meeting location to Cabela's at 6 PM (is there some sort of meeting place/coffee house there?) for ease of traveling from Lincoln for Bill. Hope other folks can make it!

I will be there sans bells, but hopefully my presence will suffice!

So is the meeting at Scooters or Cabellas?

I am going to try to make it! If I don't, count me in as a 'yes' to whatever you guys decide. That is anytime after next June. I am seriously booked through June and I'm not sure the weather up there would allow for anything earlier than that anyway. Unless we plan for camping on snow.

Personnally, I think a trip to the big sky state around the 12th of August during the Perseid Meteor shower would add to an already amazing experience. Hint Hint

I would definitely be up for a trip to Glacier. I've actually been trying to get back there for a few years without much success.

I definitely recommend going some time in late June or early July to get the best of the wildflowers.

Justin - we're aiming for the second or third week in July. Doug Daniel has started an email list - shoot him a line with your email and we'll keep you in the loop. Right now Doug is looking at flights and I am going to speak to a ranger about planning a route and picking camping sites. We have until early April to get things squared away and our backcountry application in. If you have some ideas/thoughts/tips from your experiences, I'd love to hear them! Email me at debhoffnung@yahoo.com

I have a reservation for camp sites in Glacier and am still planning a trip July 13-23. If anyone is interested in joining me, shoot me an email at digdougdaniel@yahoo.com. Please only respond if you can definitely commit to those dates.

I'm obviously late to this one, but if anybody else is interested in doing Glacier this year, I am very much interested.
