Cats Meow Jamboree, April, 2015

Just asking since i couldn't see the radiator area in the picture, my buddy owns one of the yellowstone busses and years ago we used it as a party vehicle!! that and a 31 cadillac lasalle turned a lit of heads :biggrin::biggrin:,nowdays it just sits in the museum ,next to an amoskeg steam fire pumper .
 
sad to hear about it just sitting in a museum, they should be set free and enjoyed, i let my fleet run free and shared with others, fyi, the snow picture was taken in late june, west yellowstone, mt.

Winter has settled in at Timberline Lodge, base of 65 inches of snow. Check the web cams at Timberline.

So, still needing a winter fix of sno-catting? come join everyone at Cats Meow Jamboree and enjoy.
 
I just booked dinner reservation for Friday & Saturday's Lunch for Vlad & I, seems like the saturday night dinner with the speaker is already booked full without any spare room...

Figured we'll just hang out and take pictures up on the hill :)

See you all at Tuckerville on Thursday before we all head out...
 
Yes, it is Official, Saturday Dinner has sold out, happily you will be able to hear after dinner speaker, Peter Fuchs, son of Sir Dr Vivian Fuchs, Trans Antarctica Expedition. Still a few spots left for Friday dinner, which, will have a great country rock band, come shake your track, tuckerville

it is costing . not what were use to .

I am surprised that timberlines facebook page isn't advertising . I hope they have a show area for visitors or people looking to buy can view and see what they look like.
The gatherings like this is a good place compare cats prior to buying.

Speaking of the historic Lodge, we went up today to finalize the Meow plans. Just another typical day on Mt. Hood.

Rock and Roll is getting ready to rock and roll to Mt. Hood too. Come see Peter Fuchs drive his dad's Sno-Cat.

FYI, Timberline has opened up more dinner reservations, so call and talk to Chelsea for your Sat. night dinner and Antarctica Crossing presentation by Peter.

The picture of the snow cat in the crevasse, from the 1955 expedition, in the 1958 Janruary National Geographic, has to be one of the single most famous snow cat pictures. The magazine picture is printed on 2 pages so it has a fold in the middle. Is there any possibility of getting an earlier original photo from Tucker?
 
125.jpg Hello from the factory! My daughter and I (4th and 5th generation Tuckers) are looking forward to next week and seeing all these vintage Tuckers out on the snow! especially Rock & Roll!
 
tucker's 4 th and 5 th generation, first welcome to the forums, more importantly, so please to have you attending the meow, be wonderful to see what you think about all that has been done to Rock&Roll, see ya soon, tuckerville minion
 
Man, would I love to go to this. I am a huge Tucker fan! I fell in love with them in the early 70's skiing at Devils Head in Merrimac, WI. Sadly, I am in full spring planting mode and can only dream of snow while spending my long days in the tractors. Please post lots of pictures

It will be exciting to see, I wish we could have all the guys from the shop that got to be in the teardown and cleanup of Rock & Roll when it was at our factory. The latest picture sure looks good.

Not to worry,

Timberline Lodge/ Logan-mountain manager has a area set aside just for us, and it a great big area, lots of ground to play on, with lots of fabulous photo ops.

Parking will be on the north side of the lodge right next to the outdoor patio with three fire pits.

we will have a drivers meeting thursday at the evenings social get together, Logan will be there and everyone will get to meet and chat with him, if you have questions, he will gladly answer them. He is the man running on hill operations.

also, when you buy your on hill ticket for you sno-cat, a map will be provided,

Everyone should watch the movie The Shining before they come. Timberline was the model for the hotel and is shown in the opening aerial shot (although the road is not the road to Timberline). And make sure you have not booked room 237.
 
my latest DMC1450 will be at the Jamboree this week, and it has been put up for sale... :clap::clap::clap:

Anyone interested, bring your check book :brows: so you can leave with it after a test drive! :) :17875::17875::17875:

p.s. see classifieds for details...
 
just a reminder, i did cancel the BBQ at tuckerville, sorry, just one too many things to do with the Jamboree and just want to make sure all goes well for all of you, thanks tuckerville
