Seems like lots of people want to but nobody wants to be in charge.

I think that  dlm1984 may be by default. He started the thread.
IIRC, there was a former infantry officer that showed interest as well.
I'm just a crippled up former E5, so you guys give it hell.

I saw there was a southeastern Pa one, wanted to gauge interest and see if there were enough people in Central Pa.  We've got a big state

I'd give it a shot. I'm in Centre County.

As a heads up, I'm old. I won't do anything crazy.

Weird...the site never notified me of the mention.

Anyway, I'm here.

Actually headed to scope out a possible route right now, but my weekends are pretty full for a couple more weeks.

I work rotating shifts so I can make time weekends or during the week.  I just have to find a babysitter for the little guy.  Seems like we may have enough to get off the ground.

I might be interested depending on driving distance to trail, I'm south of Harrisburg.

Yeah, I would certainly make the trip west if you get something going and it fits my schedule.

I'm throwing an update in my thread momentarily.

Let me see when I can get out over the next few weeks.  I still have to talk to Henny over the phone and I can update maybe tomorrow night

I talked to Henny on the phone today.  He suggested a meetup just so we can get to know each others faces.  We both said June 8th will be here before we know it and i'd like to be prepared.  Anyone wanting to get together and meetup let us know what day works for you and we can get something going.  March 7th work for people?  Place to be determined.

Why is everyone scheduling events for that Saturday? I'll still be on the way back from Cola Warrior SE IV.

I can do March 7 as long as my range trip this Saturday goes off without any problems. I have a lot of shit I'm trying to accomplish. I actually hope it is raining just a little bit to keep all the bitch ass fudds from showing up.

The 7th. I might be able to do the 8th, but travel plans are subject to change, so don't change anything on account of me.

First official meeting will be March 21st at Weiser state forest outside Elysburg.  It's relatively flat and should allow us to get out and see where we need work.  I was thinking early afternoon maybe around 2 PM if that works for people.

I think JJ is referring to the following location:

If not, I hope he corrects me!

There’s an abundance of state forest / mountain roads not too far from my house in western Union County too.

I’ll be going, maybe not with a pack, or a heavy pack, I’m nursing some dislocated ribs back to health.

Henny is correct that is where I am referring to.  Let's make it 2 pm, the reason this place was picked is its relatively flat and can help us see where we need work at.

I've hunted Weiser numerous times, but I'm only really familiar with the area near the hang glider launch.  Where exactly is everyone meeting up?

ETA- is it the parking area south of the reservoir?

After speaking with JJ, obviously this weekend’s hike is called off with the parks being closed.

Stay safe!
