BBCNN Run 3-15-08 El Dorado Canyon (1 Viewer)

[DesertLake]

Desert or Rusty, feel free to bum a ride from me! I'd love to see your camera equipt, I'm bringing my Canon Rebel XT. Sounds like this is going to be a photo-expedition.

Appreciate it. I'll let you know. I've got a 20d, which I think is similar to the XT but with a magnesium frame. My normal and tele lenses are L-series 2.8s, heavy glass. If you've got one of their lighter weight lenses I'd like to check it out - this thing is a bear to hike with.

Looks like my bumper is done at the powdercoater, so mine will be driveable and I will have room for someone.

Hope your flight went well.

And speaking of "can't wait to hear about it" take lots of pictures.

Here's one pic from this morning...great place (Cape Town)...tomorrow we fly North to Londoloozi for the safari portion. Have seen a bunch of 90's and 110's...a couple Hiluxes, a couple 80's and a couple 105's...but LR wins the popularity contest here.

Got to pet a wild Cheetah last night! Pretty cool...and we saw wild Baboons on the road yesterday and a huge flock of African Penquins!

Looks like I'm going to need a ride if you're up for it. Is Washoe Valley on your way, or should I meet you out there?

 

[danimallv]

Is this run going to be snow or shine?

Looks like it.

If Jason can't get you, I will have an open back seat that you are welcome to.

Looks like it.

I agree.

Desert, I wouldn't count on me for a ride anymore. I got that damned flue thing going around, im chugging vitamin C to try and be healthy for this trip. I'll keep you updated.

Bummer - hope you knock it down fast, this one seems to linger for a lot of people.

It's evil, I was out of it for two weeks. And still have some congestion.
