I had no clue this place even existed so when I looked it up I was please to see it's a 10 minute drive. Took a 2.5 hour walk through at 6am, pretty awesome place.

Need to pick up a decent zoom lens before I can hang with the big boys/girls =)

Bruce M Walker says:

@vincedotca: you were probably semi-joking about the needing "a decent zoom" comment, but in case not: by all means go, but go with what you have. Have only a 50mm prime? No matter ... go! There's so much to see down there that there's detail for all focal lengths. :-) Take a P&S for gawd's sake.

In any event, nobody should think they need "pro" equipment (whatever that is) to partake in a photowalk like this one.

At this point, that date looks good for me, but I'll have to confirm closer to the date.

@Bruce M Walker: I've been there four or 5 times since I discovered this post. It's my new favorite place to take a walk for a couple of hours.

If I can make it for the group walk I'll try!

Bruce M Walker says:

John, two confirmed: Louise and I.

Well, three if you count Tessa The Blunder Dog who has to come along since we can't trust her alone in our home. :-) But she's kid- and adult-friendly, and loves helping photographers with useful moves like bumping legs just as the shutter clicks.

Tessa, right: Drinks after work


As far as rain goes: my trusty Pentax and lenses are completely water sealed, so I'm ready! Take *that*, Canikon! :-)

@Richard: you must come so I can drool over your K-7.
