Beautiful place!
RSVP if you can make it so we can keep track of the head count. Good trip for a trailer, the dogs, and the kids!

Erin and I scouted it this weekend and it was great, a little wet and sloppy but never an issue with traction, rig could use a wash though lol.
We found some good camping areas, there were a suprising number of folks camping along the river, but at least a handful of empty areas suitable for camping with a larger group.

Oh also wanted to add, the temps we saw... 36 in Joseph, 47 at the start of the road to dug bar (just outside Imnaha) and around 43-45 at dug bar. obviously it's still winter, and it could go either way, but as we get closer here's a link to the weather (It's 50 there right now)

We’re tentative at the moment. Just got a meeting scheduled for March 14-16 but I have no clue how much I will actually be needed. Either we show up Saturday evening or get a chance to meetup Friday evening. Hope to be able to make the trip. This was a nice route last year.

We are about 2.5 weeks out from this trip and it’s gonna be a good one! A friend of Cody and I who is not yet a member is planning on joining us. He has some physical limitations but that’s not stopping him from wanting to get out and join us in his Tahoe. You guys are gonna like him and his girlfriend. I told him we have some amazing people that like to get out and adventure together so he’s pumped. I’m thankful for you all

Well I now get to work the 16th. We still might make the drive Saturday afternoon but it’ll take some convincing to get the rest of the family to go. I’m still hoping to at least come for one night and hang out with y’all.

that's awesome! and a perfect trip for it. the road in says "not suitbable for trailers" then we proceeded to see like 5 LOL and I mean like small 5th wheels and decent sized travel trailers (the switch backs would have been fun with those YIKES). but definitely full size and stock friendly.

I unfortunately will be out for this trip. Have to head back to F@#$ing Illinois for a few days due to some family issues. I tried to find a loophole to stay behind but it didn't work. See you all next month though for sure! Have a great trip, be safe.
Do we want to do a group dinner on Saturday night?
Open to any ideas!
We could do:
Chili dogs and sides
Burgers and sides
Tacos
A traditional pot luck to bring whatever you want
Chili (we could regret this but at least our tents would be warm lol)

UGH! I'm sorry that sucks. I know you were looking forward to this one. ironically I'll be in Illinois until the 14th for work. sounds like mine will be more enjoyable though...

It'll just be me, maybe one of the pups. so I'll be packing super light. I can definitely bring something (I'll have my fridge) but if it requires re-heating I may need to bug someone since I'm only bringing my jetboil.
Tacos are ALWAYS ok with me LOL
What! Natalie has to come! I’ll convince her to come this weekend. Lol
