I know this weekend (5/11-5/12) is Mother's Day, so a lot of people may not be staying all weekend, but I was wondering who is planning on being up there?
Also, who is planning on the weekend after (5/18-5/19)? I have a lot of projects in the works at my place so I might do the Friday/Saturday thing again both weekends - weather permitting.

As of now, 8 MAY 02, I WILL NOT be there. I have too many things at the shop to get done BEFORE I can go back. I do plan on being at Dresser the weekend of 17-18-19 MAY, rain or shine.
The hill needs work yet, along with the surrounding areas/challenges...Pico's plunge needs to have posts sank and the " plunge " dug back out..( all back-hoe work ). I have been trying to get a post hole auger arranged to be out there on the 18th so that we won't have to dig them, still working on that.
The other two hills after Nasty need serious help, we should look at those also, and get them in some form of destroyed, or impassable...

I do not plan to be there this weekend unless i can get out of work friday night early enough to get up their for friday night. I plan on doing mother's day on saturday.
Work is crazy right now and i am going to have to work sundays just to be able to get the friday of memorial off.
Kelly's Graduation is saturday the 18th so that is out for me too.
I will try to be there either this friday and or next friday for the night if some work is going to happen on friday nights.
I can say i will be leaving work mid afternoon thursday (23rd) to head out and begin helping.
I will be there the 5/18-5/19 weekend. Assuming that the grey trucks breaks get finished on the Friday I return, 5/17.
I will be arriving the 5/23 around 5pm for the event. Leaving Monday night or Tuesday if the event dosen't end until then.
Hey - Eric since you will be in Somerset this year (20 miles away) maybe you can come visit on Monday before you head home. Just an idea - the hill is going to be fuckin impassable this year. I see lots of broken red-necks this year.

I JUST HEARD THE WHOLE EVEN HAS BEEN CANCELED. I HAVEN'T HEARD THE REASON (probably something due to all the development going on around Trollhaugen.)
SOOOOOO, THAT MEANS THAT THERE'S NO REASON TO GO TO THE WORK WEEKENDS.

Hope this is ok.....
nothing productive will be happening on friday nights, so DON'T BOTHER SHOWING UP!
Saturday at Nasty there were tracks on the hill. It appeared that someone had driven around all the holes at the bottom to attempt some of the bigger logs just before the rocks. There were also signs of a lot of rain. There was minor erosion in parts of the hill but the largest sign was both holes at the bottom of the hill are FULL of water. The trail itself is very muddy.
We sank about 15 posts with help from a Bobcat and auger. We placed them near where the canopy sits to block traffic from entering that area. We also tried to block access to the hill from the side so that people must attempt the large holes at the bottom.
At Pico’s Plunge Steve removed a huge amount of sand from the hole and stirred up some of the rocks. We also sank posts here to funnel trucks over the rocks and moved two good-sized trees onto the trail.
After all the work we were considering a trail ride but by then the drizzle had turned into a full rain (and I think I saw a few flakes of snow…)
I think next weekend we should check out the pit and move a few bucket-loads of wood down there.

Thanks for the update - Tim. I hope to be there for at least Saturday next weekend.
