The cabin is about half a mile from where we park the car. Pack your gear so that it will be easy to haul in to the cabin. If people are interested in chipping in, I can see if we can rent a snowmobile to help with the hauling. It would probably be about $75 total. If you want to be sure of having snow equipment, and can't borrow it anywhere, you can look into renting it at SkiMarket or the like. I have a limited amount of extra equipment which I am happy to share, but I don't guarantee the fit or condition.

Notes for 2/16-18/2001:

Cars:

Ian: Anne S., Anne T., Lise, Mariane
Morton: Sarah, Haggis + 1
Bird: Jason + 1
Scot: + 1
For efficiency, if I could offload one person and Scot could get a ride, then we'd be all set. I could also just offload one or two to Scott and no one will be crowded or lonely. Let's meet at my house at 7am, Saturday.

Food: Remember, alcohol is BYO. We'll shop on the way up in Lebanon, NH.
