I can't believe I'm even on the list. I'm just not that rad. More like mellow and informative.
That being said, having no votes hurts my fragile ego. ------------- ... preparing for a river beating! |

Tom. I voted for you... I've got no idea how Almquist and Evans got on the list, though. You know, Hugo, this is just a trick to out you, assuming you want the schwag that comes with winning... ------------- |

Thanks for the vote Leif I feel much better now. I still don't think my posts are rad. I guess it gives me something to work for. ------------- ... preparing for a river beating! |

Anyone ready for the Poo Poster of the year thread... cuz thats gonna be the crap talking thread for sure!!! Should be up in a few minutes... I am suprised by the nominations for the Rad award tooo... All very good suggestions of folks that post helpful and useful things without the added crap and fluff of folks not on the list... like me  , how hugo made the rad list I have no clue and the fact that he is winning is a bit of a sad statement, funny none the less. |

Since it is so close between Hugo and myself, I have a proposal based on requests several folks have made of me via PM. If Hugo wins the poo post vote, Hugo stops posting, and if I will, I'll leave the community. This is, after all, what a few folks want, so why don't we turn this into a referendum? ------------- |

What a big freagin bummer... Why do you have to turn it into a cause for leaving? So what a few people don't like what you have to say. That never stopped you from making your initial posts. The community is greatly infused with benefit from your participation, perhaps more in some forms than others. I promise that there are more people that love the leifster than don't and at the end of the day who cares. The contest was just to see what different people thought of each others posts. I think the message is pretty clear on who likes to fling poo and who trys to steer clear. Thats all I am trying to point out with the polls and then have a little fun with it at the same time. I mean gees Dufay's Icon was the Man O'Dongs  for a year and he never said he was going to leave because people thought he was a dick. Lets have some fun here, and if we can't I will close the poll and we can go back to posting stupid shit and not caring that everyone is sick of it. |

Crazy talk... I think this whole poll has gotten out of hand. I miss the man ODongs !!!! But Dufay said that if I didn't let him change his icon and move to bellingham he was going to sabatoge the middle middle. I couldn't let him do that cause then Dave would have no where to boat anymore. So alas the Man ODongs is gone. I will never let Leif leave though... So if it comes down to yanking the poll thats just what I will do. |

James, don't close the POO POO POLL just because people are squeamish. I say, if some people are going to contribute substance, it is appropriate to acknowledge them. If some have a tendency to sling the poo, well, there should be the consequences of the poll. It is fun it should be fun, and it can serve to help us reflect on how we sincerely want to shape this forum. It could use a little help. Joking around is ok, slinging a little poo is ok, but it's crowded out meaningfull substance. I say Poll the Poo, and Poll the Rad!!

BTW- Tobin, I couldn't nominate you for the Poo- you're injured, and need some release. Besides, you cook a mean burger! I don't want to alienate myself from potential burger priviledges of the future!
(And we need you for whatever this Aplets and Cotlets thing is about)

Don't know so much about myself but Jon has shared a lot of useful info here and I've appreciated many of his posts. I'd don't think I'll be voting for "Hugo" on this poll though, that bitch would first have to man up and post under his real identity. |

Does anyone know a way to hike in to Trinity? ------------- Sure? |
Posted By: James
Date Posted: 28 May 2009 at 8:15am
| You can hike into trinity by following the rail road tracks down from rodeo, until you see the little stands on the banks of the river where the camera guys sit for rafting photos. Just FYI that is private property so if you going to walk along the banks you will want to stay below the high water mark. ... I suppose the rail road tracks are private property to but that is less of an issue. |

If you hike through there watch out for PO. It is all ove the trail that we hike for Last Chance Wave when it is in which is right along the river. It is just starting to really come in over here. Leaves of three let it be!!!! There is also a little bridge to cross the irrigation ditch where the river gets close to the tracks. You might consider just asking the homeowner if you can use access to the "tree house" so you can drive in. ------------- H2Ohta |

There is actually a game trail on the hill that leads from the highway and there was a new irrigation diversion that was put in there last year so some of the brush and trees have been cleared out.. You would have to get dropped off but you can make it. You might have to do some exposed hiking/climbing but you can get right to the eddy if you are determined enough. ------------- H2Ohta |
