JT is a great place to rock climb, any rock jocks in the crowd looking perhaps for a second? or a 5.7. leader???? great photo ops.

Woooo, we have added Karalee to the confirmed list!

Anyone else interested that hasn't been listed??

Luminosity · Dec 22, 2004

If Kara dared say she wasnt comin I woulda gone and dragged her butt there :LOL:

Ok , I'm goin to be bookin my flight in the New Year ... ( probably mid January , I'm waitin on my Canadian work visa :roll: ... )

As of now I'm thinkin I should fly in the night before and stay at a motel right near the airport .... just to make it easier , get over the jet lag in a comfy bed , avoid plane delays etc etc.
And if Matt and whoever else are gettin a lift to the airport on Monday mornin then I'll probably time my flight to Canada for that mornin also ..... ?

Karalee · Dec 23, 2004

I said Id be there. Im in the still bookin a ticket group also.

Ok, So I'm coming to JT officially!

What is the final plan for picking people up at the airport?
I'm looking at tickets that can put my in Ontario CA on the night of the 17th or the morning of the 18th. Which would be better? Also when are we hearding people back to the airport on the 20th?

I want to come!
I got my mom and my sister coming too.
Do have to bring like a tent and cooking stove, food, etc. to this or is it provided?

I driving, so where is the camp site?

Where do I pay for this thing? Do my mom and sister pay too even tho there are not going to do the workshops? Maybe they could just help pay for the campsite?

Thx,
Cmptrdewd

We have reserved 4 camp sites at the Black Rock Campground at the far North West of the park. Deposit is $20. Pay using the paypal button at the bottom of any forum page. Make sure you specify your handle and that the money is for the JT trip deposit.

You will need to bring camping gear and we will be providing all food and drink. Once we get the final head count and the meals planned out and priced, we will be letting everyone know how much the balance will be. We will be eating well but the cost will be very reasonable. The workshops are free and totally voluntary. Just a bunch of the old veterans around here sharing their knowlege with those wanting to learn. Any other questions, please let us know.
