I am searching and not finding any discussion about the upcoming Knap-in.  Who's going this year?  How about you Dave Tiller?  Are you going this year?

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I'll be down there.  Last I heard Aaron planned be there.  There's a short thread about it over on Paleo Planet that Emery started but, as you noted, nothing has shown up about it on here.  It seems like the majority of active members on PA are from east of the Rockies.

 You didn't look hard enough. There's a long thread  Glass Buttes, Knap In, under Primitive Shoots and Events.

I am going too - hope to meet some of you there.  I plan to be heading down the 19th and coming back on Monday the 22nd.  The weather forcast shows 30 to 60 degrees for Bend over the weekend.  Can someone please remind me of the milepost for the turn-off?

Thanks Mullet!  Found it now - I didn't realize that the site search didn't go down into that Primitive Shoots and events folder unless you clicked in that section... 

What have you been up to Brian?  We'll have to do some knapping when I get back. Did you ever get that Locust?

Most recent forecast for Burns is calling for temps mostly in the mid to upper 50s and dry except for Monday when there's a 30% chance of rain or light snow and Thursday when there is a 20% chance of rain but still mid 50s.  I think it's a go.

Tell - Hope you had a good trip back to Idaho.  Here are a couple photos of Glass Butte and the PA gang.  I really enjoyed meeting some more of the NW branch of the PA bunch face to face!
