Mojavegreen,
You are correct, the options for the meeting where based on the sugestions posted on this forum and the feedback that members were giving on the forum but also via email. However, I had Wizard as in favor of the caves at Cottonwood Springs. I furthermore thought that he mentioned in one of his posts that he had not been there so he would like to get to know them or something similar. I honestly thought that Laughing Bear, Sycamore, Wizard and I were all in favor of this place and AZ Mike has given me a blank endorsement to whereever the meeting is held.
Anyway we will meet AT 11:30 AM tomorrow morning, where LaughingBear and Sycamore indicate in the above posts and hike in to the Cottonwood Springs area from there. Sam D. you are more than welcome to join us, but it appeared that you were hoping to get a soak in. Unfortunately, there is no place to soak where we are going tomorrow. As for CO we will need to play it by ear. The BLM rangers in the area is not exactly pro CO or amongst our greatest supporters at this time.
Our agenda will include:
1) Discuss the situation with BLM and the WEMO plan.
2) Discuss our position regarding the USFS closure.
3) Plan for the January meeting and Claudia Kellersch birthday and Camping Bares' visit.
4) Signage by the USFS and Bowen Ranch. Feedback from other visitors.
5) Lettering on the brochure box on the trail.
6) Decision process for relocation of meeting.
7) Other subjects.
Look forward to seeing many of you tomorrow. LOL
