HST Matchathon 12/24/16 thru 1/24/17

Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.

Thank you balzaccom and Eiprahs! :thumbsup:

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

First time I've been logged in for over a week or I would have donated sooner. Happy to donate to a site that I get so much from. Thanks to everyone for doing what needs to be done to keep keep things going so well.

Only 39 of us donated out of how many registered members? I'm disappointed, as I would have thought FAR more members would have donated....

Contributed my $10. I didn't realize this was happening or I would have donated sooner. Might want to make it more prominent?
