Thanks for asking.

You can get your donation to any of the Gadsden Air Corps guys at the fly-in and we'll make sure it gets to them, or you can do it online or mail it in.. Big Creek Lodge website here: http://www.rebuildbigcreek.com/index.php/donate

been to enough fly ins.. I'm going up for 10 days arriving the 3rd for fly fishing and no crowds,comparatively, but thanks for the info...Too many planes in a narrow valley all at once if you ask me... I'm gonna send off a check.. can't think of a better donation to make than to a Big Creek rebuild...

Dogs are no problem at the fly-in. We always bring Tieton with us.

Bring the doggy! He will love it! And we would miss having you!

See you at GV!

Who is going? Only 3 are signed up on the events page and I am certain there are a lot more.

Im leaving Ohio Tuesday. I'll get there when I get there I guess!! Thursday would be great but Friday would be a better bet.

Going to be there all week... Starting tomorrow.. Regular runs, shooting, biking, flying and fooding....

A couple of us are going to fly over and open water swim cascade...

Going to be a fun week!

Air Corps!

We kicked off BCP flying week today. Met at top secret central Oregon location. The Oregon contingent is headed to Idaho via Reds and the snake River.
Cheers

Hey Rob Harley and I are heading over to Owyhee first thing in the morning and then were going to go into Garden Valley and fly out of there for most of the week. we don't know if we are going to make it over to JC. After garden Valley I will be headdown Rob's place to help him with his 170

I got the nose fixed on the Stenson

We plan to be there - will be lifting off from Mid Valley to head to Garden Valley on the 27th.

I think what Aktahoe meant is that if you click the "I'm attending" button on the event page in our events section, you get added to the list. Others can then clearly see who is attending instead of reading fifty pages of forum thread.

Done - now there are 5 attendees.

Was just looking at that myself. I'm water proof but hope'n for a wx miracle.
Might need to rig up and bring some tarps and poles for a fire pit awning so we can come out of the tents and sit fire side in the event of the non-stop down pour. Still planning to arrive JC on Wednesday.

Rob,

Hmm... Are you sure you have the right Garden Valley?

The NWS forecast is Mostly Sunny with a high of 87 on Thursday 6/26. DA looks to be the biggest issue. I've never seen winds forecast that far in advance.
