Rick, I was thinking along those lines too the last couple weeks. At work we usually all have certain weeks we like to take and I can squeeze my week in barely this year. I have an invite to hike with some folks I've never been with before, for a trip to Colorado. Seems I heard earlier this winter that further east they had received a few good storms, so maybe my luck will work out. At least bug season will end early then with a early start maybe. Trying to squeeze one more group snow camping trip in here soon I hope, other wise it will be just me on a few more trips before mud season starts.
