| There's a fairly large group of non-canyoneers heading through Moonshine Wash on April 8th, and you'd be more than welcome there if you don't end up making other arrangements. A few of us will press on out a more difficult side canyon and do a loop back to the trailhead. This is all weather-dependent, but it looks like Saturday will be partly cloudy, not much chance of rain. |

| A couple of guys from work and I are thinking Ding/Dang on Saturday the 8th. We are shooting for 10am at the trailhead if you are interested. |

Thanks for the offer and I do believe that I'll meet you at the trailhead.
I'm driving a Blue Chevy Blazer. I'll bring my ropes.
Looking forward to it. |

A week and a half ago, there was almost none at about 6,700 feet elevation in the southwestern part of the Swell. With the warm weather down here lately (it's only been getting down to 45° at night), it's probably all gone. |

Cool! Look for us in a silver Toyota T100.
So far the weather for Saturday looks good.
My truck is full but If anyone else would like to meet us there, feel free. |

Ya, ropes almost entirely unnecessary for Ding/Dang. To be on the safe side, a short length (maybe 30m) could come in handy.
