Pd, and others, we enter Q on June 22. We probably won't get to Kawnipi until about June 25. We plan to do some daytripping while on Kawnipi, so if anyone is in the area, keep your eyes open. If you let us know your plan, we will watch for you. We exit Q on July 3.

I know of several other QJers, who haven't chimed in on this thread who regularly travel together. I did a trip back in 06 that was eight QJers, most of whom I had not met previously. We connected initially via PM, exchanged emails, and an email chain was the method of planning the trip. There were also a few phone calls made just to make sure we were all on the same page. I met one of the members when he drove to my place to spend the night prior to the trip. That is when the plan was hatched to load 'pack extenders' (carefully measured & cut RR ties) below the food box, in the foodpack.

I say that to say this: For this idea to work, you have to reach out and connect with those you think would be good trip partners. Just begin communicating. There is a place for 'profiles', which can be a beginning point. Having said that, I haven't done a profile on myself, because I've posted enough on here, that most are able to form an opinion of whether or not they would like to trip with me. There is also a feature that allows you to go back and review posts of anyone you choose. :-/

Prouty, MT, others, I think I would enjoy tripping with you guys. If you're interested, let me know. This years plan is in the can, but I'm open about 2014 and beyond... 8-)
