Madison River Conclave - schedule? other questions..

I now it's a bit early, but was wondering who's arriving, when, for
the Madison River Clave???

Just booked my flight to come in on the 8th. I had a frequent flyer
ticket to use and couldn't get it for Friday or Saturday, so I had to
go for the Thursday date (not that I'm disapointed, but still need to
break the news to the wife). Had to book the flight into Jackson
Hole, so it may take me two days to get past all of the other water,
and scenery, on the way up to the Clave.

It's my first time out to this great part of the world and wil be
solo, so if anyone else will be coming from the South around the same
time , let me know maybe we can get in some early fishing.

Have lots of other questions but I'll start with just one more. I
have an older T & T 6 wt that's a bit heavy and probably don't want to
cast that rod all day so I'm thinking about either buying a basic 6
weight rod, or just sticking to my favorite Sage 590 SP and/or RPL.
They tend to get me by on streams that a 6 wt is recommended, but
should I think about cutting into the Madison River budget for a new 6
weight, or just saving the cash for a bit pocket cash on the trip?

O.K. maybe one more question..I also have a 3 and 4 weight I could
bring along if the need is there. Will we be fishin any smaller
streams where a shorter, lighter, rod would be required?
