Of course, if you fall down too many times while snowshoeing, this could happen.........

I called the Park today and was told that the road work will not begin before April. I was also told that the access/rules will be the same as it has been in previous years.
Who's gonna help build igloos?

Ed, we will have 2-4 Zemmin's available to help build Igloos. We are planning to fly in Tuesday evening, so we will definitely be around. Still trying to determine how many of us are coming.

Are you planning on camping? It works to go up, build and stay the same day. A long day but nice. First night is usually Thurs. then others show and we build more Friday.
Sure glad you're stout.

Ed.

Cassidy and I are planning to stay the night on Thursday in the Igloo. If Roxanne and Jordan come, they will want to head back at the end of the day on Thursday. I was hoping there would be some others that work for the day on Thursday (maybe JP) that would lead them back out.

Sounds wonderful, Mark. That will make it work out sooo good! With everyone that'll be in town that week, I wouldn't doubt someone will be able to join Roxanne and Jordan going out.

Ed,

Good chance I will be available for building on Thursday. Not sure on camping overnight. What is your igloo charge per night on a single non-smoking room?

Five hours hard labor will get you a single non-smoking room.
Good to hear you're making it for the Stomp.

This is great news!

Unless I have to work unexpectedly, you can count me in.

Anyone need a roommate during the STOMP or have an extra bedroom? $$$ is going to be tight, and given what happened this week, I'd like to stop for a day or two at Rainier on my way down to Colorado.

Send me a private note or message through Facebook. :)

I suspect you'll stay the entire weekend. That's good, you did well when we did the practice igloo.

That's the plan.

I'd like to get at least one more practice igloo in before Stomp.
Maybe someone would like to join us to make it a "proper 3-man" operation? My schedule is quite open.
