I think there was an ask in last night's chat to have a simple Q&A format for the next one. We go off on so many directions... sometimes great, sometimes only good.


I'd vote that our next one focus on gear. (This last one was -- for the most part -- on trip planning.)

Twins87 - My beer was a Sled Dog Session IPA from Voyageur... :-)

Thanks Adam! It was a fun evening. I enjoyed lurking, which is mostly what I do on the board. I would like to see a semi-regular event too. I work a lot of Friday nights but have some free this winter & spring. No food on my end but I was enjoying a tasty beer I received as a gift.

adam: "Thanks all who came! A nice crew and conversation.



Next time more people need to be eating wings during the call.



"



I think I was the only one eating, and it was gnocchi! Ha.

I'd be very interested in a monthly call like that.
I agree the presentation you put together Adam, paired with side chat conversation and q&A was great, not to mention pairing names w/faces.

Like I said, I'd be up for doing this monthly e.g. Last Friday of the month...

Lots of great info from Adam. Enjoyable discussion after the presentation. Enjoyed the whole evening. Thanks Adam!

Wish I could have jumped in. I ended up with other plans. Maybe next time.
blutofish1 01/30/2021 09:49AM
No wings but, peanuts and beer. Thanks Adam and all who participated.
schweady 01/30/2021 09:12AM
Thanks again, adam! Very entertaining and informative. Your use of maps during the trip planning questions was a big plus. Side chat with participants was huge, too. Thanks to all who provided tips and fishing secrets...

RedLakePaddler 01/30/2021 08:47AM
Thanks Adam for putting together the wing night. Had a great time. It is nice to put a face to many of the contributors to BWCA.COM. Hopeful we will meet sometime in BWCA. Stay well and safe.

Cricket67: "I'm no expert, but I believe zoom meetings can be set up where sub-groups can be assigned virtual rooms. My son's Scout troop does this and it works well to divide everyone up when different kids are planning different campouts or working on separate merit badges.



Just a thought"



That sounds interesting. I will look into it.

If you requested an invite and didn't receive it, please let me know.


With this large of a group, we will ask that most folks be on mute. I could use some help from someone to monitor the chat for questions or comments to queue up people that would like to speak.


JRUWL 01/29/2021 06:21AM
Invite please

If Jackfish is in, I am very tempted. Please send me an invite.
thegildedgopher 01/27/2021 08:30PM

mizfoot 01/27/2021 10:47AM
Also interested!
PeaceFrog 01/26/2021 03:01PM
I am interested. Please send link. Thanks
Cricket67 01/26/2021 09:25AM
I am interested - I have a good deal of experience in some areas but am also looking for advice in an area where I have not been before. Thank you for setting this up!
rxgac 01/26/2021 06:35AM
Yes, link please. Just listening and learning.

Please send me an invite link.
bwcadan 01/23/2021 09:59PM
Please send me an invite. I guess I am a defacto leader for base camping based on the number of submissions in Joe's headed forum for BASECAMPING. I would answer questions if I can actually get into the meeting.
bwcadan 01/23/2021 09:59PM
lindylair 01/23/2021 05:45PM
I would also join in if I can - planning a May trip to a new area and have a few questions. Also glad to add anything I can to the discussion.
coloray13 01/23/2021 05:14PM

mcsweem 01/22/2021 09:10PM
Im up for one
schweady 01/22/2021 06:59PM
Interested.
Already got the updated link, I guess. Thanks.
Focusing on a single topic might be hard for this group, but looking forward to seeing the attempt. :-)
adam 01/22/2021 06:48PM
Please post if you are interested, and we will add you to the invite list.
adam 01/22/2021 06:46PM
Hi All,


Sorry, I should have been more clear. We are going to push this out until the 29th to give a little more time to prep.


Jaywalker 01/22/2021 05:36PM
Adam,
Please send me a link too. I'm just finishing something and will try to jump on.
MikeinMpls 01/22/2021 12:15PM
I could probably participate in a week.


Mike
schweady 01/22/2021 09:37AM
Great idea.
pastorjsackett 01/21/2021 07:53PM
I'm in.
adam 01/21/2021 07:51PM
Heyfritty: "How would this be conducted? Zoom meeting or..."


This would be a zoom like meeting. I have a google meet paid account so that is what we would use. I think we are going to push this out a week as this is pretty short notice at this point.

Same here."

RedLakePaddler 01/21/2021 02:13PM
I would like to join a in as long as I don’t get snow bound on the way home from Ely. Entry points out of Ely, gear, and canoes would be in my comfort zone.

Happy to help with areas I have traveled and interested in getting advice on some new areas I want to travel this summer.

Most of my experience is routes off the Gunflint Trail, so that is my comfort zone for answering questions.

adam 01/20/2021 03:55PM
I will throw this out there. I know there are lots of folks planning trips and could use a few tips.

EDIT Of DATE
I am proposing a trip planning wing night for this Friday (Jan 29) from 6:30pm - 8pm.

Post if you are interested in jumping on as either someone who wants to ask questions, listen, or answer questions.
