Ugg, my boss mentioned today that I'll probably have to work that Saturday... I'll try my best to be available to go, but it doesn't look good.

Call in sick. There's some serious spring fever going around.
Just got back from camping & hiking in Oak Creek Canyon, and I'm pumped for this death march.

I hate it but I have to drop out. My rotten leg is still aching pretty bad and I don't want to be a burden or grump the entire time if it goes south. I'll be down next time, for sure...

We would have just left you for the vultures so don't worry about us.
I want to try to organize another So. AZ hike sometime this summer. Maybe in the Huachucas.

We have 2 more who aren't on this forum for a grand total of 5. 5 would bump us to 2 vehicles, but you're more than welcome.

Sounds good. Hopefully, I'll have recovered from this nasty crud(cold/flu) I've had the last week

Nickfraley, if you're out there, what do you think about starting time?

We need to figure out the vehicle situation. rljamy and I both have 4-door sedans (though an idiot light just went off on mine this morning), my roommate James doesn't have a vehicle, and my buddy John has a 2-door pickup. Bearing Down on nickfraley rolling a minivan!

this is the worst...i did something bad to my foot yesterday at Tanque Verde Falls. I might have to bail, right now i have constant, relatively severe pain in my arch.
i fricking hate to do this, but i'm gonna have to go back to interested for now. it's hard for me to imagine this piece of crap is going to be better in 5 days...

That stinks! It would have been a great hike for all of us to do together but life has seemed to have gotten in the way...

Same here. Maybe we can look to go again in the fall?

Bob what do you think? I'm down to do it (and again in the fall, schedule permitting), but it may be better to re-schedule it

Why don't you just reschedule. The fall sounds good. I need to train for next month's GC backpacking trip anyways. I haven't backpacked with a lot of weight in a longggg time.

Start thinking about another date. I'm down for sometime in April, the fall, or both.
