Re: FYBO 2010
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýNick, ? Yeah it is a long drive that¡¯s why you want to stay for awhile so that when you return you don¡¯t remember how long it is. We will stay over night at a Monte Bello state park near Bakersfield. The winter weather is usually dry and sunny with daytime highs in the 60s, at night it can drop down into the high 20s. If it does rain it can flood rather unexpectedly. ? OK on the reservations at both sites. We will just have to wait and see how the weather is. ? Dave ? -----Original Message-----

I looked at the Monte Bello campground on the Web and it looks like a great location about 2600 ft. If we get some good weather, we should definitely go there. The Henry Coe location is certainly a good option if the weather is bad. ? Dave Flack and I are going to Death Valley on the 6th of January and I will be there for about 2 weeks. Neil is also planning to come for a couple of days. We will be at the Texas Springs campground near Furnace Creek. We will have e-mail down there at the visitor center in Furnace Creek so we hope to keep in touch (cell phones don¡¯t work there). I want to setup a station in Badlwater (salt flat) which is the lowest point in the USA (-282 ft.). There are some high peaks in the park but they are not easy to get to in the winter. Dante¡¯s Peak is about 5000 ft. which can be driven to and depending on the weather can have snow. ? All the Best for the New Year, ? Dave W6VYC ? -----Original
