\"\"<\/a> The weatherman indicated it would likely be a wet weekend, better than the holiday weekend last week, but rain was likely.\u00a0 Friday was cloudy but dry so travel up to the trailhead was uneventful unless you got caught in the backup caused by a multi-car wreck between Horseshoe Bend and Banks.\u00a0 If you were it could add an hour or so to your travel time.\u00a0 By 18:45 everyone who signed up had arrived and set up their camps.\u00a0 An improvised dinner was shared and Jenelle Weeks asked if we still had a set of dominoes in one of the chapter camp boxes.\u00a0 A quick search turned up a double set.<\/p>\n

\nOne of the tables was set-up and members gathered to play or watch.\u00a0 Play continued until\u00a0 it\u00a0 was\u00a0 getting\u00a0 to\u00a0 hard\u00a0 to\u00a0 see\u00a0 the\u00a0 dots\u00a0 on\u00a0 the\u00a0 dies.\u00a0 Smiles and laughter were common and all enjoy the time together.\u00a0 By 21:30 the camp settled down for the night.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a>
\nAt 06:30 the camp started to stir. As stock were being given breakfast those who’s humans were a bit slow where protesting that they had to wait. By 07:15 the tables were filling with items for breakfast and the smell of coffee and hot chocolate filled the air. As we were washing up, a few rain drops fell so people pulled on their rain gear as they saddled up.
\n\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> A short distance up the trail was a large log suspended in the air above the trail, that just lit up Charles Chick and Rob Adams eyes. What a great training opportunity! Saw gear was unloaded and PPE was put on and the log was evaluated for binds and other hazards. A cut plan was developed and Rob and Tracy Zamzow did the saw work.<\/p>\n

The rain steadily increased throughout the day and by 12:30, four miles up the trail the team found a place to stop, have a snack and head back to the trailers.\u00a0 So this is what it is like to ride alone the pacific coast!\u00a0 After reaching the trailers, the group consensus was that hot showers and\u00a0 our own beds were what we wanted next so we packed up and made the trek back to highway 55 and home.\u00a0 All the rigs were covered with mud by the end of the drive.\u00a0 The rain was a factor on this project but didn’t in any way diminish the enjoyment of the weekend.<\/p>\n
