Boulder Batholith Bash: details
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to post a link with the location of the Homestake Lodge for those unsure where it is. Exit 233 off of I-90, take FS road 240 (south of the highway, there will also be a sign saying "Homestake Lodge 3") and drive three miles to Homestake Lodge.
http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode&ie=UTF8&hq&hnear&msa=0&msid=105022698662509417623.00048d69990dfe32ac741&ll=45.910615%2C-112.378635&spn=0.026993%2C0.052185&t=h&z=14
We will be having two BBQ/cookouts (one ~12:30 up at the boulders and one ~6pm back at the lodge) we're bringing lots of burgers/dogs/sides...if that doesn't appeal to you, you're welcome to bring your own grillins or sides for yourself, or to share...
There is camping available at the lodge, near the festivities, for $10 a campsite, as well as beds available at the Lodge(not sure on the price on that) or free camping in the surrounding forest service lands.
Hope to see you there!
