Barney Riley - Dear Valley - Strawberry July 10, 11 , 12

[bkreece]

I'm putting together a run July 10, 11, 12. The itinerary is to do Barney-Riley friday, deer valley saturday and finish up the weekend with the Strawberry trail on Sunday. I haven't done any of these trails so I hope someone who has done them (and/or who has a gps) is interested in coming along. A few people I have talked to are interested in day trips, so as in other runs - meet up with us when you can! Plans for campgrounds and rendezvous points/times to come.

Do bear bells work! It's supposed to be windy maybe we'll hang it like a chime?

[potatomutato]

if you have any firewood laying around, i suggest you bring some. we can pick some up on 4 as well. no fire restrictions in effect. i'll be picking up a fire permit along the way.

[potatomutato]

[potatomutato]

just for clarification, is that CB 37 or 31. just asking since NorCal has traditionally ran on 31.

[bkreece]

Thanks,
That is CB 31...sorry for the typo
