5:30 start-time at the Lost Dutchman Trailhead, earlier start-time possible if there's a consensus. HPP needs to be back to the car by 10:30, 11:00 at the latest. Come on Bob/Joe/Joel or any of you other insane Phoenicians!

I'll be playin in the Payson snow...otherwise I'd be there.
edit: wait this is for next saturday

You know you want to Bob.

Hiking > Fly Fishing > Lame things like working. Have fun!

Well considering I'm still learning I like to get all the practice I can and this is going to be with a bunch of members of the AZ Fly and Tie forums so I will have people much better than me to glean alot from

Damnit I haven't even caught a fish on a fly rod yet.

hmmm... I work at 11... should be time to do this. Im considering it. Depends alot on what I end up doing Friday night, as to whether or not I want to wake up that early. So maybe I will be there, if so I will commit or cancel on friday night.

Gotta meet the pirate so I'm in! Just for the hike up, returning a different route.

what the hell route are you going to return by?? you got my attention

Would love to go, just hiked Flatiron yesterday and I'm itching to go back. Unfortunately, next Sat morning I've gotta go knock on doors with other union members and tell people to vote in the PUHSd budget override so we all don't lose our jobs and high school class sizes don't skyrocket up to 40 kids/classroom. No better way to solve the budget crisis than to cut from state parks and school districts.

Maybe he will use that Mary Poppins umbrella of his and base jump of the point of the Flat Iron.
He has accomplished almost everything else! :worthy:

it sits somewhere near the saddle before Geronimo Head.
Actually, Joe is working up the return route into uncharted HAZ territory...I'm just following

I couldn't accomplish anything without great partners and of course this website(starting early to become HAZ member of the month for March) ;)

Joe and Bob are in...AWESOME! Wish Joel could make it, good lookin' out for your job security, man. Hope a couple more can join. Somebody should give me directions about where exactly to park my car. I know how to get to Lost Dutchman, but the trailhead setup looks a little confusing.

Im out!! forget that! I'll stick with the kid friendly flatiron.

In response to rally_toad:
I was just kidding...but it will be uncharted HAZ territory.

so what the heck are you going to do?

Come on Jim, hit "confirm" on this sucker

oooh, thinking about this - I've been wanting to camp on top. Maybe I'll haul the griddle and propane and cook ya'll a Grand Slam.

That is unless the models want to do a shoot at Red Rock Crossing... HPP - will you be back to Sedona in time to be a photo assistant?

On the 20th? Depends on what time the shoot is. That'd be awesome though.
