Has anyone done the falls trail and what level of difficulty is that?

I'm still on. Is there a fire ring or pit anywhere for lunch break? I'd bring Juicey-Jumbo franks, buns, mustard and diced onions for everyone if there was.

Now that it's all fixed, just *have* to test it out :)

Too bad we didn't meet up when we were in Canmore for a week relaxing a couple of weeks ago.

Yes, some sort of loose head count is kind of important food wise.

I'll be in Calgary early Saturday and will hit maybe the Safeway at Dalhousie if I have some idea of numbers, say by 10 pm tonight.

Where and when are we planning on meeting? If it's McLean, 9 at the store works well. For Waiparous, 9 at Smitty's in Cochrane works.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

I thought we arrived at 10 am on the previous page. The suns not even up until after 8 now.

Thing is, there's this girl see. Based on the previous page I was to pick her up at 9 off McKnight and Centre Street, then we would head to McLean. She's in transit in the USA and I can't even reach her to change the time now. We'd be lucky to be there by 9:45 at best.

I'll be in, if you don't mind a non-jeep in your midst. No CB, I'm afraid.

Where is the store? Is that the gas station in Bragg Creek?

If anyone is bringing communal food you needn't count my truck of three towards the head count, though the thought is appreciated.

Top up in Bragg Creek and then head south on 22 and west on 66. No more than five minutes from Bragg Creek.

Get outta here on food. I said I would bring it if I can only get there on time.

My bad...I didn't see the 10 AM thing from that page. Ten will work for me. Last thing  I want is for my lack of reading comprehension to bugger with your romantic plans  ;)

Ya it is going to be 10am at the Mclean Creek store.

I take mcleod trail south to 22x west then go all the way past Bragg Creek, past the Forest Ranger Info Center and past Horizon Camp then you will see a sign for mclean creek which tells you to turn left. There is a store a couple minutes from the turn. Food will be good, I will bring a case of pop. I have also done the highway 8 westhills way, that round-about is kind of cool.

I went to Princess Auto today and picked up a shovel, tree saver, recovery strap (without metal), some shackles, and a hitch hook. I am bringing a friend who has a Hi-Lift jack. I also bought a 32km range CB walkie-talkie from Best Buy for 50 bux. Hopefully my new XM radio will work out there, I bought the cheap $15 unit just to check it out.

This is open to everyone even non-jeepers, I haven't bought a membership yet, but I plan to. I've been just way to busy lately and missed the last 2 months meeting.
