It seems every January I get this "itch" to figure out the Montana trip.
I know Chas has planned a September gathering in Yellowstone for 2007,
but I have no idea what anyone else has in mind as well. Bruiser
(mentioned 2007 as a respite from Alaska), Willi, (conspicuously absent
and missed), John H., Are any of you western fellers doing the Montana
deal this year? If so, when?

increased a bit, and optional meals are $35 a day)

What the heck is Willi?
Did he just get plain fed up with this group?
fwiw,

I'm certainly not one of the roffian regulars but I'll be in the Greater
Yellowstone area from mid-May until mid-Oct except for part of August spent
back home.

I don't know **** about fishing, but it does often seem that I have the
exact center of the currently fishless area located, if that is of value
..... and I'm always willing to share what I don't know. Contact me when you
come and I'll gladly let you know where I'm not catching much.

I'm west of you, and I plan on being in Yellowstone and/or Grand Teton all
September, so I should be there on whatever dates Chas comes up with.

Last I heard from Willi he had sent you an email and hadn't heard back (this was
in December IIRC).

I'm going to make a week-long road trip to SW MT sometime between
July and Sept, but I don't know when yet. Have dates been set
for the Yellowstone clave? Location?

i hope chas will remind us all of the dates he selected...seems to me it
was around sept 8? i think i'll have trouble making it out at that time
because of my annual october jaunt in the nc mountains. i've sorta
gotten used to july.

....and as far as the brew, it sure was rich to have a deschutes pusher
in camp. w. yellowstone was a long drive. g

the slide inn, owned by kelly and penny galloup, has a mailing address
in cameron, montana. it sits on the madison, just west of the quake lake
earthen dam and east of 3-dollar bridge. one of the great reasonably
priced (80-125 a night) places to stay in that area. kelly is a "genius"
fisherman and flytyer. he usually has a good group of kids working for
him too.

Does that, perchance, make you a source of quality local knowledge about the
Blackfeet lakes area? Spending a week or two there has been on my "to
do" list for some years and a recent roffian stillwater threadlet got me
thinking that catching some really big trout might be fun to do again for a
while. Maybe this year would be a good one .... but then, I've hit an age
where it has become very clear that 'years' are in limited supply making
them all seem like good ones to take advantage of while that supply lasts
