Since I haven't had any replies to my last posting about holding a men's camp at my Wyoming hunting ranch I am going to assume not enough guys can get away on such short notice. I often forget that most people don't just hop in a truck and drive a thousand miles or more like I do to go somewhere. I have forgotten that normal people need more time to plan something like that. So, I am proposing giving everyone a year to plan for this adventure. Is there anyone that might want to do this say summer 2010? I will also accept guys from here to join me on an antelope hunt in Sept 2011 at my ranch, as my 2010 hunts are pretty much spoken for.  I will not be charging for anything for the summer camping. Everyone will be responsible for sharing the expenses of the camp, such as fuel and food costs. I would like to hear if anyone would be interested and how long they would prefer. Would you prefer a week camp or a weekend? What are the things you may want to see? Is there a better time of year for you? Keep in mind that this is a very remote location and year around access is not always possible.I would love to get everyone's feed back and suggestions on this real wild west adventure.
Thanks,
Nick

Are you near a river? I would not mind getting away for a few days to meet other fellow surgery brothers and do a little fishing. It would be easy for me to load the springbar and some fishing gear in the bronco and head out from NM.

About 20 miles west of the North platt river and the about the same north of the Alcova Water Resivior. See my previous post:

OK  for the men of the men's forum. As I said in an earlier post,  I am considering opening up my hunting ranch for a guys camping weekend.  I will be off work the last two weeks of June. I am suggesting that I can open the camp for a men's weight losers weekend on the weekend of June the 27Th (Friday Afternoon) through the 30Th (Sunday Eve)weekend camp or longer if anyone wishes. I am willing to stay as long as a week. At most I can accommodate 12 people including myself. I have 3 ATVs  (Quads) in camp and you are welcome to bring your own. This is 4x4 country and very remote. There is an ATV rental in town, but they are expensive about $300 a day.  If anyone is interested I am not asking to get payed for this, just don't want to cost me any money. I will of course pay my own gas to get there and back and my own food.  I plan to take the group to see, a Emigrant Gap (nearby canyon), a place called Hells Half Acre (check it out on web) and a part of the Oregon Trail.  A fishing excursion to a water reservoir is also possible. So please let me know if anyone is interested see my previous post or check out my profile for more photos of my hunting ranch. If enough guys are interested I will open the camp in May and leave it stocked with non food supplies. I guess I will do this as first come first served. Anyone wishing to bring a camper or motor home, this is only accessible on steep 2 track roads. So 4x4 and/or high ground clearance is a must.
