I think I could explain this one Ken.

As for Ron now bringing along an extra fly-rod, I see it as
security and a psychological reassurance.

Sounds perfectly logical to me Tom, like I said, DSFDF.

The Fawn Lake by Crevice Creek?

don't know crevice creek. it's by fawn creek & the headwaters of the
gardner, in the gardner hole area west of the road between mammoth and
norris in yellowstone park. there's a backcountry campsite at the lake
also. yellowstone kenny says the lake doesn't exist....claims it's just
a damp spot full of weeds. 4 of us hiked to it last year.


Are you sure y'all weren't gettin' stoned while listening to The Band?

HTH...no, really...

Aha! Fortenberry was right all along! It turns out that there is a Fawn
Lake." It's near Bozeman, and it's near a Crevice Creek:

both. :-)

I camp for two days in the bowels of Upper

The "bowels of Upper Creek gorge" certainly sounds a lot more like a
place
that dictates precautionary measures to guard against catastrophic
equipment
failure than "Ten Million Tourists a Year ( 11 million of them fly
fishers )" Jackson. Wy.

my guess is that no more than 20 folks a year will traverse the rocks
and water that jeffie and opie will experience.

wayno

My guess is that even fewer fly fishers will do the same trip as Jeff and I
are about to embark upon. There are many hikers and youth groups (outward
bound) that descend the Greentown Trail to Upper Creek, but I suspect that
they stay to the marked trail and don't hike up the stream. There is no
trail--that I know of that parallels the stream, proper, it's entire length
up to the Falls. We will have to wade and rock hop up the stream for about
3 hours or more, before we make our first camp, and do the same on Sat., to
get as close to the Falls as we can, so that the hike out Sunday won't be so
difficult on two old, out of shape, non-hikin', non-campin' dumbasses!

To make things interesting, I tore-up my left knee yesterday at a university
sponsored event. I raced one of my shop mates, who is 14 years my junior
and in much better shape than I, on an obstacle course. I may have blown
out my knee, but more importantly, I won the race!!!! Got an appointment
with an ortho surgeon on the 8th of May :~^(

Op --I sure hope I'm able to make that appointment?--

Seems this brouhaha about mysterious Fawn Lakes can be explained.

Ken Fortenberry is correct: There is a Fawn Lake in the Crevice Creek
area (page 27 lower left, of the Montana Atlas & Gazateer as RW has
noted).

Jeff is correct: There is a Fawn Lake near Fawn Creek and Fawn Pass
Trail (page 23, of the page south west of Mammoth Hot Springs, Montana
A and G).

So, I call it a draw. You are both correct.

Now, can ya kiss and make up?

You evidently missed the sarcasm, even with a smiley.
