Let's revise this thread and maybe get a little more action. jo_77 and I are travelling from 1300 miles away to this premire event among the cottonwood of the Yellowtone River basin. Certainly, there must be more than a handful of mudcatters within a 1300 mile radius of Columbus, MT? It looks like the two us us will fill up my car w/insturments, clothes, tent (for jo_77), camp dutch ovens, and other cooking regalia, but we'd be glad to stop enroute to meet others and convoy together. We'll probably go up I-35 from OK to KS, then west on I-70 toward the Denver area, thence North on I-?? (I don't have my map in front of me)through WY to MT. I've made reservations at the nearby Riverside Cabins. They are filling up fast. All that was left was a smoking room, so I had to take it.
