Anyone interested in doing baldy in Feb or March. Just as a climb no tutorials just go for a fun climb?

I recommend that you join Kurt Wedberg's group hike up Baldy from Manker Flat this coming Friday (see this thread, particularly Kurt's post on January 25). Kurt's hikes attract a varied crew and are always fun for all. Meet at Manker Flat at 6 AM on Friday, February 11.

Thanks so much dude! That sounds great! I will try to get out of school but I think I can because climbing is part of my senior project so I can get out of school as part of my project.

Had I tried that they would have laughed in my face (the highest spot in Michigan is 1,700 feet) I'll second that part about not fair - I took all the wrong classes in HS :shock: :D

I wish I had that as a project, instead of configuring DHCP and MS Exchange servers *head explodes*.

Good luck! I envy you!

ahaha It's a requirement to graduate from my high school honors program and it could be anything so i chose mountain climbing and to fundraise for Big City Mountaineers independently of the Summit for Someone program. Thanks for the well wishes.

I believe Kurt Wedberg is involved in some way with Big City Mountaineers.

Kurt is not going to be able to make his own hike. :cry: HE posted on the WPS Board today.
Hey Gang,

It is with sadness that regretfully I need to bow out of the group hike on Friday. I'd encourage anybody who wants to still go (although getting into the Hut probably won't be able to happen).

I look forward to seeing many of you at the stores!

All the best,

Kurt

I heard he emailed me this morning. I hope I can still go my parents are the only thing standing in my way. I just need to find out who is heading the hike now? Thanks for the update.
