Sounds good thanks Scout. We will be up next weekend, my parents will head up once road opens back up. Really appreciate your insider knowledge.

Glad I could help. I called the Resort regarding the road opening, supposed to be a meeting this afternoon, they may know more after that. The best ideas I could are "maybe" Monday....or Tuesday.

I just got word from Chuck that East Fork will open tomorrow afternoon. He wasn't sure on timing to open the road, guesses around noon. You heard it here first...! See you soon Packer...and Bill?

I was hoping to keep it quiet for awhile, Stacy. It could have been nice for awhile....

I am bringing a large CLOSED ABOVE sign to put on the road. Well....I guess the lowland termites do not read anyway so probably wont help. Maybe a NO SPRAYPAINT sign would be better.

It’s quiet for us, Palisade is closed as the Forest Service has set up camp. Canyon is very different this year. Lots of people who have no idea how to camp or fish for that matter.

Yes, got up the canyon when the road opened. Was the only one at EF by 1:30pm. Within a few hours it was packed!

I was able to get a nice site at Big Meadow with the kids when they opened the road, spent the week staring at as much of the burn scar as I could see. Could of been a whole different story with a bit more ferocious wind swirling around. Appreciate the quick response by the crews, for the Canyons sake. I shouldn't have been surprised (but I was) at the amount of folks everywhere, from Rock Creek to Virginia Lakes. It was a good week to spend a lot of time just putzing around the campground, enjoying not having a schedule, except for breakfast time and happy hour.
Hopefully we'll run into some of you folks at Labor Day, East Fork

Wish you would have been able to come say HI as my son and I were there. Maybe you can join us for Rocktober. Place and dates to be looked at soon. Usually just a Friday to Sunday gathering.

Sounds great, I always look for a late trip to try and catch a few browns swimming up out of Crowley in the Owens, I'm rarely successful (at both the late trips and the browns). I'll keep an eye out for the dates.
Thanks, Tom
