This is a replacement trip for the cancelled 4/12/23 trip. As I post this trip (2/12) the weather forecasts are conflicting, depending on the model. So there may be a warmer spell with rain or this cold dry spell may continue. Basically: I'm hoping for more water, but if it doesn't happen, neither will this trip! 1.
