Wisconsin Climber's Party
|
Kicking the climbing season off (did it ever end?) with a party! Saturday, May 12th, 2012, Climb hard on Saturday at Devil's Lake and then come party and camp out on the Wisconsin River Saturday evening. |
|
Anyone over 21 welcome? Havent climbed before in wisconsin other than taylors falls, but would love to come out to devils and climb!! This saturday the 21st? |
|
Are you worried about having too many people? Because I can pass this on to Hoofers, which will probably draw a big group (10-15 maybe). |
|
The party is on May 12th and any climber over 21 is invited. There should be plenty of space, so please pass this on to the Hoofers (as long as they're 21). I do ask that people RSVP so I know how much beer to buy. Hope to see you then. |

This is awesome! Thanks for taking this on Mike! |
|
my bad said it all in the post! C ya then! |

Mark your Calenders! |

The Wisconsin Climber's Party is this coming weekend! After Tuesday there is no rain forecasted continuing through the weekend so conditions should be perfect. I have received a lot of questions regarding whether or not there will be enough space for everyone and if it is OK to invite extra people. To address these questions: 1) Yes, there is plenty of space. In fact, enough space for literally hundreds of people, their cars, and their tents. Additionally, there is a really beautiful island a short paddle (a couple of canoes available or bring your own) across from the property that would offer quiet, scenic camping for those afraid of a Miguels like scene for sleeping. 2) Yes, I strongly encourage people to invite everyone over 21 who climbs in Wisconsin. The mission of this party is an attempt to bring together the somewhat fragmented climbing community throughout Wisconsin. There are a lot of great people that climb in this state and we rarely get an opportunity to come together and hangout. It seems every time I go to the lake I am meeting new or dedicated climbers that I haven't run into before. My vision is to see them all come together at a rocking party after a day of climbing in a private, beautiful campground. So, make an effort to come out and let's see how big the community really is. Invite your friends (use the facbook link in my first post). |

Dam, I thought kegs might drag you all the way back to Wisco Steve. Hopefully it will entice the local DLFA guys out; we're going to need someone to drink all this beer. Remo and I have discussed trying to track down Pete for the party. If anyone has a contact for him please share the invite. I'll also drive by his house Saturday morning and look for him. |

Tomorrow is the day! If you don't have a GPS: From Madison take Hwy 12 north to Hwy Y, which is 1 mile south of Sauk City. Take a left (west) on Hwy Y and follow it for almost exactly 4 miles. The house is on the right: 10270 County Road Y. From the lake: take Hwy 12 through Sauk City and cross the river. Take a right on Hwy 78 (at Green Acres), go about a mile and take a right on Hwy Y. Go 3.1 miles and the house is on the right: 10270 County Rd. Y. |

Hey Mike, that was great! What a gorgeous place to watch the sun set, and I really enjoyed listening to the whippoorwills. |
