I enjoy leaving as early in the afternoon as I can in order to arrive well before sunset. It gives me a chance to enjoy a camp-stove dinner, and take in the desert solitude and the peaceful feel of the Wedge area. How early can you leave? Anyway, I would really like to go to the "new site." I'm flexible, though, if everyone else wants to stay at the traditional site. Some people like the idea of the somewhat higher altitude. The "new" site, however, has the benefit of being a few miles south and the additional southern latitude is definitely a plus in my book. Mike Bailey
