I talked to my son, Ryan, and he said he'd be interested. I'd love to. There's a guy I work with that says his in-laws are in Gardiner and they have a place where we could stay. My dad said he might be interested in coming so he could post a bear watch for fly fishermen. lol

jhusky, dad's not really a fly fisherman, although we got him a redington ct outfit a few years ago. He loves the mountains though and would have a camera in his hands at all times. Dad has told us that when he's gone he wants his ashes spread on top of a mountain. We lost mom April 1 of 2016 and she wanted her ashes spread at the bottom of whatever mountain dad's ashes were on top of - because she was afraid of heights. True story. So this would also be a trip for dad to say where he wants them to spend eternity - so to speak.

Sorry for the loss of your Mom modad2010 - really like her sense of humor, and hope your Dad has many more years. Hope to see you all there.

Sounds fun. My annual trip is usually the first two weeks of July, might have to adjust, but I do like the beginning of July.

That would be a lot of fun! Will stay tuned.

Ordered and inbound. Thanks for the tip.

All fisher women and significant others welcome. Yellowstone Park is close by and is a good excuse to get others to come out.

I just reserved a big Suite at the ********* Inn Sleeps 5. So far I know two are coming from the East for sure. "Chase Da Dog" and myself. I think two others might be "Jastrout" and McFarland. We are Driving. Our reservation are the 13th-20th We have one extra bed maybe two.

That's awesome news!

Two piece rods are a pain in the ass when traveling by air John
So, no I don't think so.

I'm also really excited to meet friends from this forum (and classic fly rod forum) after many (at least 10+) years!

Any plans for fishing during this Clave Dusty?
Or are we going to drown in BBQ saus the whole weekend?

Would love to attend. But not sure if it will happen. The Bozeman Bamboo gathering may be a few weeks later (don’t think the date has been finalized yet). I have been envolved with that for the last few years, so it might be tough for me to attend both. We will see....

This is why I no longer travel. I told my wife that I have established a 200 mile radius from my home. If I can't get there by car I'm not going. And, really, I have no need to travel. I live in Montana and have everything I could possibly want right here.
