So yeah for the sake of getting booted from the trip I figure I should contribute something.....so believe it or not I will keep the jump-rope jokes for myself and post something of worth. I actually made myself read one of those books to get some ideas on trails and have a few ideas...the first being that we do one ~10 mile hike (4 bottle of liquor hike) and a shorter 2-4 mile day hike. The first hike that I found that not to pedestrian for us is "Inspiration Point, Stanford Point, and Dewey Point" is covers 10 miles and is considered strenuous but with Josh jump roping and shit and Brad ability to survive in harsh temps due to his thick winter coat we should be ok...but for real it calls for 9 hours with a high point of ~7000 ft. It also suggest a campground that we could set up in for the first night. As far as the second shorter hike there are a couple of hikes that I thought would be cool; the first being another hike in the valley area or a red wood stand hike.
We need to discuss the exact time period involved i.e. 5 days or 4 or 6 whatever. I know that for me a 7 day week would be max. Next we need to decide how we want to set up the hikes. Go out for 2 days then come back to the valley and get supplies then head out again or whatever.
I will scan in the trail details tomorrow at work so long as I can dig my car out of the fucking snow.

Patrick, how clever of you to ask "when" we want to go on the hikes and "how" we should go about it, rather than "if" we want to go on the hikes at all.
Clever, clever boy.
clever and presumptuous
You guys should work out how long you want to go for - I'll go for as long as you cats are into.
As for hiking - I'm more for a minimal hike.
Again, when is this thing?
Somebody suggest some kind of date... I would, but I'll go whenever. Tomorrow?
Last week in May, first week in June? Tonight I'll take a look at the historical weather data either way for a few weeks and see if that tells us anything.
Patrick: Do the two trails you were looking at have date restrictions on them?
I don't think there is a fishing season to speak of but I will look into that as well.
Anybody want to pour over the park regulations to see if there is anything in there we need consider that we haven't already thought about? If not I can do that too.
Patrick when you you were thinking about this as a 7-day thing, I'm assuming you are including a day or two of LA time?
Brad and Patrick: Have either of your Moms expressed a preference as to which half of the trip they'd like to cover?
DJ: Surely you have a good weed connection in LA right?
