- Sara, that is the best place to park.

Lets meet at the closest parking lot (which from the map appears to be near the coords for 357 quad) at 9am. Brawny Bear please let me know if you have a better suggestion of where to park? Here's the comment I got from a detective regarding snow on the ground.... Snow on the ground MIGHT cause problems with SS-Apprentice if you need to climb any hills or ford any streams. Unfortunately, SS-Apprentice is at least a 6 part,maybe more if you're unlucky, multi-cache which you will need to PROBABLY do both things. Just be extra careful, dress warmly, bring a whacking, er hiking, stick, and carry lots of hot cocoa in a thermos. With that, you should be fine. Some waypoints and caches WILL be more difficult inthe snow, but not impossible. They will not even be "nearly impossible"--just more difficult. :-) Have fun! It will be cold and there will most likely be snow on the ground so please come prepared. I contemplated pushing this back a few weeks but am really wanting to get to SS-Detective soon too. Keep your eyes out in the next couple weeks, I'm looking at either Jan 22nd or 23rd for the Detective challenge. I'll post a defnite date as it gets closer. Please try to send me an email if you plan onattending so we know how many eskimos to expect before heading out on the trail. Sara --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
