Damn! Really wish I could make it tonight! Maybe you could do a round 2 some time this season out in Joshua Tree??

I wish. This sounds like the most interesting slide show available. Good one.

I'm sorry to say I was swept away by life circumstances and could not make it even though I was so close by. :-(

I thought Kris was going to get a severe scolding by the Sierra Club members for NOT having a bear can on his GOD trips. It got tense there for a few minutes but turned out ok.

So you caught that too, we never had one.
We just did the tree hang, when we could.
Never had a problem, Kings Canyon Bears are not like the YV ones.
The show was fun, I remember - before the Internet, when getting together like this was a regular thing.
I hope we can get Kris and others, to do more shows out at JT. and other places.

If I was not working on a long term project I would repeat some of your GOD routes this fall. Maybe I will in any case, or next year for sure. Every time I see that place on the horizon driving out of CK I get some butterflies in my stomach. What are the formations over on the other side (just North?)? Some huge rock spires up there..

V .... I think you are talking about ... The Cobra, The Corporalie (SP), The Commandante (real bad SP) ..... side of the GOD. I know nothing about the canyons that lie to the east, paralleling the GOD.
if you mean the stuff due north, like across the middle fork of the Kings, that is Kettle Dome and the hidden Blue Canyon, and the Oblesk.
big rock everyplace.
NOW is the time to go to the GOD, the place gets lots of T-storms in the spring time.... summer is very hot, we found that the best time was "Rasin Season" .... those 4-5 weeks of very settled in stable weather before the winter stuff starts.

Sorry I missed it.
I was going to make sure he told the tale of fixing his partners wife's VW Rabbit with the 9mm pistol.
