mattp Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 May 13 is the full moon. I'm thinking Friday, Saturday, SUnday May 12-14 might be a good weekend for the spring ski campout. The DOT says the highway is supposed to open by "the end of April" so that gives time to be sure. Ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekend_Climberz Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I could definately swing this. What's the locale? Somewhere near WA Pass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 Yes it will be over the other side of Washington Pass, either at a campground or a private cabin near Mazama. We have not fully firmed up everything, but I thought early notice would be beneficial.

mattp Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 Hmm. We could move up a week, but we'd miss the moon. Maybe that's OK, though. Who needs a damn moon when you have a bonfire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David_Parker Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 We are clear to use the cabin and camping site in Mazama as we did for the first 2 CC spring ski fests. As you unofficial host (I do not actually own the property) the weekend of 12-14 works for me. I encourage all moms to attend. There is lots to do other than skiing! I also approve parents with children attending at their own risk of exposure to drinking skiiers around a bonfire. If children are present, I ask any smokers of various substances to be discreet. Â Once again, I will order a porta-potty to be on site. The owner of the property is very gracious to allow this event to take place and so we owe the respect of leaving it in better condition than we find it. It appears he and his wife will actually be there this year (Saturday night) and so you will have the opportunity to thank him in person! Â We will need firewood and you should be responsible for your own food and barbque supplies. We have at least two large webber grills. Also, there is a hand pump well, but the water is rusty so your option is to bring lots yourself or walk the 1/4 mile to the river with a container. Â Folks are free to arrive on Friday night if they wish. I will post directions once the date is finalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EWolfe Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I'm in this year. Â Thanks for getting the spot, David. That place is way cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
