Re: FCW-10

Just a heads up for everyone - I'm bringing about 50 flashlights & about a dozen knives to sell / trade at FCW-10. I encourage everyone who wants to sell or trade lights to do the same. And of course bring some extra cash so you can walk away with a great deal, and no shipping charges!

You should post a list of the items so people can consider if interested or not...and bring appropriate cash or trade stuff...etc

Think of it as job security.



Maybe just spread the items out and take a few pics, and post the pics.

No way man, I like surprises!!!!

Me too carrot. That way I'm not disappointed! And if I don't bring enough money is my fault.

At the risk of sounding like a wuss...Camping in November? Brrrrrrr :duh2:

Ehh, who am I kidding? I'll probably still come.

You should try camping when there is 3 feet of snow on the ground

This is what the average November CPF camping trip looks like:

It will probably be no colder at night than what we had in the Hickory Park in Pa. We hit 36 degrees one week end...

The chart I posted above is a historic look at the area over the past 10 years. It shoes the average hi/low for the weekend we will be going - it comes from TWC. Of course it also shows the record hi and low. I hope it leans towards the higher side. Even if it is close to the averages (which is obviously the likely outcome), a low 60's high is pretty good camping weather. And remember that the 45 low is an overnight low - which will happen for a short time overnight while we are snug in our sleeping bags.

Um, some of us are more nocturnal...and, at night, we are out with flashlights, etc.



Luckily, most of mine keep my hands pretty warm at least...and I LIKE it cold for sleeping.

Did anybody find out if there is electric available at the sites or in a bathroom nearby the sites?

I don't think there is any electric available at or near our sites. But I think someone mentioned bringing a converter that can be hooked up to a car to allow us to charge up!
