NT4L/Rover Plans For This Weekend

[Robin E. Midgett]

Hi Jim,
There are basically two possibilities; one long route & one shorter route.
Roan is a very long drive from the four grid intersection of EM74-75-85-84. 
If I had a partner to share the driving, we would do that. Roan was in our 
original plan; now that I'm a loner (at this point), I don't think I will 
be up for that.
There is a possibility that I might decide to stay out all weekend, camp at 
Mile High with you guys Friday night, then trek northward to pick up the 
EM95-96-86 grids, which forces me to stay out all weekend. Then I (we; Bob, 
Steve & I) have to figure out how to get the microwave gear back into the 
proper hands, be it this weekend or later.
Bruce & I will be working on the plan tonight & more this week...I'll 
update Fourlanders when we have a decision. If we can arrive at a plan that 
will allow me to either take the entire long route or cut it short 
depending on how things go, that will be the key plan.
