Hey I'm in for the Lorton Meetup next Sunday. I'm pretty close to there as well.
Also, Courtney and I just decided to do Canaan loop this weekend. Last minute idea and we're rolling with it. Heading out from Woodbridge early AM Saturday morning, heading back Sunday morning/afternoon. Anyone's invited.

Hey Adam, have you done Canaan Loop road before? Looks a nice scenic forest road. I was just up in Dolly Sods and Blackwater Falls area about 6 weeks ago. Love it up there.

Yeah did it with a buddy in February. Not bad, but you get some pinstripes. We're planning to do a little day hiking along the trail and Canaan loop is great for that. Lots of hiking paths up near blackwater area, and plenty of great views.

I might be able to join you. My sister-in-law is borrowing my camp gear and is supposed to be back on Friday (just not sure how late). Depending on the state of the equipment, I might just be able to pick up and go.

Checked out some photos online. Looks like a fun route!

Just let me know what you're missing and we got you covered man. I keep a bunch of extras.

Off-topic, but I just read your signature line and saw some gear that I'm looking into for my future upgrades. How are you liking the SSO slimline, x2o winch combo? Also how long have you had your SPCs and how are they treating you? We're going to have to talk upgrades!

Yeah gotcha. Spare tent and roll up mattress. I'll pack them.

Short form is I like all of it. I've had them for about a year, no complaints. Other than not getting out as often as I'd like.

Sounds good! I am hoping that she'll be back tonight, so I can use my tent. Where are we meeting tomorrow? I'm 99% sure I can go. Just need to make sure I finish up this one deliverable for work by tonight.
