Drederek Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Well nothing is up yet and climbing is not on their list of categories. Guess we'll check back in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairweather Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) Not a single Saturday or evening option for working folks. A not-so-clever way to hear from the people who will offer up the least amount of angst. I'm sure Polly Dyer and the WW folks will all be there. Reopen-it Dosewallips decision was made three years ago and not a single shovel has been taken outta the shed. That would be a good place to start. Sure, I'll fill out the survey, but forgive me if I'm cynical. In any event, thanks for the post, Matt. It's the first I've heard about it--and I participated in the MBSNF version that was supposedly scrapped.
