What size spools Kev? I can possibly get some that are on the rather large size. The kind that takes two people to lift variety. Free!

A few of us are camping this weekend at the McLean campground.  Let me know if anyone else is interested and we will book some site close together.

So far:  
specialk - Kevin -> one site
Pookapotamus - Dana -> one site

I need to transport fence posts and wire out to the work site for Saturday AM. Who is available with 4x4 trucks or trailers, with enough clearance for the trail?

The material is stored in Calgary and we can either load up on Friday night or load it up early on Saturday. I will have by utility trailer but need several more trucks and or trailers.   We will discuses the exact plans at the CJA meeting on Wed night.

I have an 8' truck box utility trailer.  I think I'll be free to load up some material on Friday (only after 7:00 though)  Or early Sat morning.  If stock rigs can make it into the worksite, then I'm quite sure my trailer can as well.....If not by my little stock TJ, then certainly by someones elses rig  ;).  Let me know where, when and what you want me to take..

Just to add to this...  We are unable to get the post pounder from SRD and our new fav rental place tha we used last time told me that theirs had just been flipped so it's a no go. 

I found one and have it on hold but it is in Cheadle which is on the east side of the city.  We need someone to transport to and from the site.  We can use a jeep to move it around the job site.

Post up if you can help out with this.  Thanks.
