I’m not sure yet, depending on a few items yet to be determined.

 

I'm out.

 

I’m out, at least for the eclipse stuff. If there is a weekend camping type thing, I’ll possibly make that.

 

I'm out. Sorry guy, work calls.

 

I'll list you as maybe/in just so I include you on the PM

Booooo

Okay, I'll list you as in just so you're included on that camping plan. If we go up Saturday morning/Friday night, I'm sure there will be side quests/adventures going around Saturday and Sunday too.

Booooo

 

It’s looking good for the wife and I. Planning on coming up Sunday. If I get to doing the needed maintenance on the rig I’ll be looking to hit some trails potentially, do we have a line on any of those in the area?

 

From Airbnb to RV sites, eclipse lodgings hard to come by https://www.wcax.com/2024/03/01/airbnb-rv-sites-eclipse-lodgings-hard-come-by/

Damm

 

Yeah, we were just reading that too. I figured I did enough doom-and-gloom posting in here already, lol and didn't want to add to it... with the ... $1000 / night rooms

 

The Birches, outside Greenville, Maine, were offering cabins for the flat rate of $1000, total, for three nights for the eclipse.
I don’t know if they still have any vacancies.

Everything is shut for mud season, gotta wait til June 1st for VT

 

For future trips up there I know of a few in northern vt. 1 I have been on was great

 

STATING THE OBVIOUS FOR THOSE WHO ARE LESS THAN BRILLIANT!!

DO NOT STARE AT THE SUN, ESPECIALLY DURING AN ECLIPSE, ESPECIALLY DURING TOTALITY OR THE MOMENTS RIGHT BEFORE AND AFTER.


BUY THESE, VERY REPUTABLE BRAND IN ASTRO...

We may go see if we can do one excursion Saturday or Sunday. Weather dependent. But yeah April is peak mud season in VT. Gates are closed so trails don't get shredded. I know some in the area

I'm planning to go up Saturday morning, i can take the long way and swing by some of the trail heads and see if they're open.

 

Baxter State Park will be closed in April due to mud season. See their Facebook page for more info

 

Similar post from NMW today as well

 

I saw that. Can't wait to see the pictures of Priuses stuck in the mud and Tesla's dead in the woods.

 

"but but but muh solar charger for the Tes... la..... oh right, the sun will be blocked."
