[pct-l] Rockies Ruck - a final posting (maybe? :D)

[pmags at yahoo.com (Paul Magnanti)]

Less than month to go for this low key get together in
Leadville, CO. 

The idea is to have a hiker get together such as ones
done on the East and West coasts...without the airfare
for those in the Rockies. :D  Of course, people from
all over are welcome, too. 

Hope to keep the ball rolling and make this a yearly
event!

Anyway, there are about 25 people going so far. 

To find out more about the Ruck, go to:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rockies_ruck/

There is a "schedule" now as well!

The usual caveat: Nothing is set in stone. The list is
just some ideas. Being hikers, we can be flexible.
Feel free to bring any slide shows/ideas/whatever. 

We will have access to a large screen TV w/ DVD and
VCR. Karl Luce is bringing a digitial projector and
laptop so we can show computer based slide shows.
Naturally, you don't have to do everything, as the
hostel is big enough if you've had enough of the slide
shows. :D

The "schedule":

FRIDAY:
Afternoon - meet and greet
Early Evening: dinner
Evening: CDT slideshow by  Mike "D-Low" DiLoreznzo

SAT:
Morning: Breakfast
Day: Going over Packs/Stove Making/ Slide show
watching/ Shooting the breeze (pick one..whatever you
want to do. :)
Lunch: I like the idea of a potluck lunch. Bring
enough food for yourself and two other people. As
mentioned, there is a good sized  Safeway in town, so
don't feel you have to cook anything
Afternoon: Going over Packs/Stove Making/ Slide show
watching/ Shooting the breeze (pick one..whatever you
want to do. :) 
Dinner: We eat!
Evening:  "Southbounders". An AT movie..not a
documentary! 
"Resouled" A PCT doc


SUN: 
Breakfast
Group outdoor activity (for those who want to)

Again, don't feel you have to do everything on this
list. The whole weekend is just an excuse to get
together and talk trail. :)

Any questions? E-mail me:  pmags AT yahoo DOT com
