-Oh no I picked a side-
Ok so here is the plan. I will be heading up either later friday night or early saturday morning. I am going to tow up to where the tree trail starts and thats where I plan on setting up camp (I will have my camper).
So the plan is to spend both saturday and sunday closing the trail (unless we can get it all done saturday which there is a possability). I am hoping shawn from the state parks will be there to help or just watch us kick some azz. We will also be doing BBQ at the camp saturday night and Jason (toyotanut) will have his big BBQ there.
Here is what is needed. I am hoping for at least 20 people to assist in the efforst and of course, more can come since I am pretty sure the work isn't going to be easy.
Here is what we will be needing
1) the poles will be suplied by the state parks (A climbers association have donated the pipe material)
2) need 9-10 flate plates rougly with 4" area for the piupe to be welded to with like 4 5/8 holes (thickness needs to be around 3/8") GRNTACO is taking care of this
3)I have cable thats probably arounbd 200' long but would like at leats another 100' section(GRNTACO is also donating more cable)
4) Will need some of those clamp things for the camle so we can loop the ends around trees on both sides of the baricade.(3/8" cable HIP has taken care of this)
5) would like 2 welders there (TB-F ethan has on of them handled)
6) need 2 chissel tools to make the platforms on the rock surface.(KarlVP is donating tooling and hip will be bringing it up and War-Jeeper will also be donating tooling and brad will also be helping)
7)need 2 tools to drill into the rock (see above )
8)need hardware to retain the plates to the rock(Hip will be bringing 8 5/8" x 10" anchor bolts -Boxboy got the rest of the needed anchor bolts and epoxy)
9)I will be bringing my generator but would like at least 2 more
10) Need one or 2 cutting torch's to nip holes in the pipe for the cable to be ran thru (CrustyJeep will bring his bottles/setup)
11) If somebody can bring a couple tarps and some string in case the weather goes south(I will have a couple and HIP will also be bringing some)
I am sure there are a couple things I have missed
