No problem. It's always nice to get multiple viewpoints from multiple people. I don't get there nearly often enough anymore. I now live ~1000 miles away. I started going back when Neil and Terry were still running it (prior to OLT being formed). Up until 2001, I was there 8-10 times a year. Now it's usually every other year or so. Missed last year due to the less than desirable weather (rainy and chilly). I plan on being there late July this year (No specific dates yet). It would be nice to meet a fellow TN'r. It is heaven on earth.

One of the most relaxing places in America, I was there with my ex girlfriend 2 years ago. I'm going back next week and will be camping there for 4 nights while I fish and explore the area. I'm going alone, so I hope that doesn't seem super weird to others that will be there.
Thoughts?
Anyone want to meet me there?

Just left, so I can't join. Make sure you make the trip to the Bat Cave. The numbers have increased again (Closer to 300,000 now), and they are leaving the cave earlier than usual. More around 730PMish than their usual 830PMish. Sometimes all coming out at 730, sometimes a second, smaller launch at 830. This video is from 26 July, when they all came out at 730. For awhile you can see the two streams, but the wind kept blowing them together.

OLT/Valley View season is almost upon us. Of course there are hardy souls that will do the winter thing, but hiking naked is a big part of my experience there. The earliest I have been is last week of April, and it has been warm enough in the day to be comfortable. It is still a roll of the dice weather-wise until late May. I am planning a few trips down there this year. Who else?
I will be there either the last week of June or first week of July. Not sure if I'm going to get a cabin or not. In the past few years, I had a tent that attached to the back of my minivan, but both the tent and the van have had their last season. It worked out well, as all the "stuff" went in the tent, and I had a fairly nice bed set up in the van. Considering acquiring a camper trailer to replace, but haven't made the plunge yet.

Decided to explore the forums and found this thread. Been to OLT a few times and just became a member last year when I returned to CO after a few years away. Usually go camping there by myself so would love to meet other people there.

This years trip is scheduled. I will be there June 25 - 30th. Wanted to get a cabin, but screwed around too long deciding on dates. I will be staying in the Oak House. Come say "Hi".
