Hike in fishing anyone??

[slivers86]

I know someone had just started a thread about where/what lakes... but I have an idea that may be fun, and get a group together.

I would be interested in a group of people who would be interested in doing a few alpine hikes into a few lakes this summer. Would be good to get 3 to 5 people (otherwise smaller bodies of water could feel a lot of pressure) and set off for a few of these less travelled areas.

Any thoughts or ideas would be great. Anyone interested, PM me. Hopefully we can get a few people together and make it a bi-weekly or once a month type of deal.

I could be in depending on date

[npauls]

Depending on what the doc says after my July 3rd MRI I may be able to for July, August, September, and October.

[Guitarplayingfish]

I could be interested as well... keep me posted.

I think that's a great idea, and I'd love to join you. I'm curious what sort of difficulty of hikes you're thinking of. I know there are tons of hikes out there that would kick my ass (especially with my float tube in my backpack). But, if you're thinking easy to moderate hikes, I think that would be a great way to meet a few other AO forum members.

Alright, and like I said, its not a SLIVERS thing, its a group thing. Best bet, get a solid group together, have our summer schedules, and plan a few trips (day hikes are nice, and easy on family life too...) Maybe 1 or 2 over nights depending???

Idea's, thoughts, etc?

[npauls]

I would like to do that marvel lake trip and stay at the cabin if that is possible.

JTS1 was telling me about it and if I am in good enough health I think it would be a good 4-5 day trip if guys would be down for that.

Barnaby for goldens would be another good one. its about a 3 hour hike from what I have been told. Head out early in the morning and come back before dark.

[slivers86]

npauls - I like how you are talking. I wont be able to do a multiday, maybe overnights this summer, next year will be different (less expenses :)

[Dust1n]

im in for marvel

[Willowtrail]

Hey Slivers, I would be able to make it for something like that, sounds awesome, need a bit of notice but not much.

What are the odds that Janelle would be joining us?

[Nickote316]

I would be in depending on the date. Would also love it if I could use the mountain bike to :D

lol, who knows! I no longer work at that site, but could see if her and her hubby are up for a hike! He's a pretty avid fisherman aswell :)

[slivers86]

Maybe we could plan a marvel trip for late july early august at some time? What do you guys think? I'm working 2 nights, 6 off from July 2nd until Aug 10th

[slivers86]

Rather than make a list, this website seems to have it listed out. Some cool places to head in the park (I'd enjoy doing national park fishing/hikes). Some good brook, cutt, and rainbow fishing. Even a couple lakes with a health bull trout population

National park or not, I'm interested.

[slivers86]

Anyone interested in this, please PM me.

Some of us (JTS) are fat boys and can't do terribly hard hikes... so it'll be fat boy friendly :D

[jts1]

I'm going to do Marvel July 6-9. Have one going with me can make a bigger group out of it. Let me know I can shoot you a map and what we have planned. May do Owl lake one day as well

[slivers86]

Darn buddy, I can't that week. Gf's family is coming in from europe from 1st to 10th :(

[jts1]

I can do July 6-9, 16-19, 25-29. If that works better

[slivers86]

Consulting to GF... more like asking which date range works best. I'm gunna do it... what the heck, ya only live once right? :D

i am in the same boat as you only day trips or one overnight but i am in just keep me posted
ps. need a week notice

[Calgaryguy1977]

I'm also interested in this! Message me if you can get a group going. Im thinking the more the better. Would be a blast i'd think!

[Calgaryguy1977]

Ive been eyeballing a lot of those lakes in outdoor alberta for some time but have a hard time finding anyone crazy enough to hike deep into the wild to fish. That said, I think the fishing in those areas could have some very aggresive bites! :)

Lol!! Try window mountain lake, it only about a half hour hike and is amazing!! Some nice rainbows, easy to fish around most of the lake, would be an easy overnighter or starter lake!!!

[S-in-Cochrane]

I would be interested in this also. Can be free most any weekend with some advanced notice.

[slivers86]

Anyone interested PM ME for an invite to the group. This isn't just for marvel, but other dates through the season. Hopefully we can get a few people together and have a few good hikes

:sSig_cool2: LOL That's such an easier way of putting it than what I said. Count me in as a fat boy! I had forgotten about this post until now. I'm so glad I found it again. PM sent Slivers. Drifter, glad to see you found this, too.

Cheers everyone. :happy0180:

[slivers86]

guys the PM's are important, as we've made a group. If you are serious about doing a few hike ins, or a few remote rivers, etc this summer, PM Me your email and I'll get you invited as soon as I can :)
