Hey LittleBear,

Best of luck to you up there. I've got an idea for you to consider, check your schedule and try to line up a guide in one of the areas you'll be in. No better way to get the "Lay of the Land" so to speak. you said you have a respectable chunk of change that would be an excellent way to spend some of it. Once you know your way around you can show the other guys how it's done.

Anyway, like I said good luck and tight lines.
cool
