Looks like I'm gonna miss next year's Annual camping trip

Post by sbolt19 »

Sorry to say, but next year if the annual camping trip is the last weekend of July or the 1st weekend of August, I am going to have to miss it again slap . My dad gave me the terrible news that he is taking me, my brother & my 2 brother-in-laws on a fishing trip. We are headed to this po-dunk outpost in northern BC Canada. We have to stay the first night in Vancouver, then take a charter flight out to this one horse town called Masset, BC. It's a 2 hour prop plane flight, then we hop another flight in a chartered helicopter for 30 minutes and land at a place called West Coast Fishing Club on Langara Island in the Queen Charlotte Islands. The closest land to the north of us is Alaska. He is had to beg and plead all of us to go, but we finally relented. We'll be staying in the shanty they call "The Clubhouse" and forced to spend Monday evening through Thursday morning fishing for Chinook & Coho Salmon, Pacific Halibut & Cod.

Sorry fellas, but looks like I won't be able to hit the trails that week.... flipoff laughing2

You will be fine.... we are having next years camping trip there too...

Seriously - that looks like an awesome trip. If one of the brother in laws backs out, let me know - I can join the fam for 2 weeks. Tough sacrifice I know but anything for a bronco brother - right?

Yeah, I know. My father in law (who is also my boss) told me that if I couldn't, or wasn't able to, get the time off next summer, he would be happy to take my place for me. I guess it's one of those friends/family who needs enemies issues, eh?

Boy, you will be absolutely miserable!! I just hope you can deal with all that...

Post pictures! Had a friend go on a similar trip in the same area, but I don't know where specifically.

Have a good time "eh?"
