Cats Meow Jamboree, April, 2015

That does not look like a year round pool but I am up for a polar bear swim... Might need to go shopping for speedos though. ;)

I just wish we didnt have to make reservations, and just use it if there was space, since its hard to predict where you will find yourself at the end of the day.

Will we have a "certain" time we need to get into that hut, or we will be able to drive our cat up there whenever we feel like it? Never know how cozy that firepit in the main lodge could be in the PM... :)

Guests at Silcox Hut will be able to be able to access it at any time during the Cat's Meow week end for the day/days you stay there. This includes night time. Check in time for Silcox is at 4:00pm the day that you have reservations. To answer your question, if you stay at Silcox for all three nights, you will be able to drive there at any time after check in.

Each of us will be responsible for any break downs and recovery, their staff will not be providing fuel either.

Here is a photo of Silcox with the original Magic Mile Chair lift.

This IS a YEAR ROUND pool that is very comfortable to swim in even when it is snowing out. For you polar bear types, we use the snow angel technique to cool down, then back into the pool or hot tube which is right next to the pool. Snow is located in the pool area for your convenience. Speedos?
 
Just finished getting flight & car sorted. Getting Pumped!

How are reservations looking currently? A good turnout?
 
the snows are a coming, the snows are a coming, after a season of very little snow ( out west ) and even less sno-catting, the meow will be your FIX and need for ADVENTURE

now is a good time to make those reservations you have been thinking about,

do not be the guy that everyone at the Meow, is asking where is ? ? ?, don't be that guy! besides all your sno-catting friends will be there, so make tracks to timberline !
 
how bout some Snow catting Gals...... I am stuck in a Man camp on the north slope... be nice to see some of the opposite sex...

GPB... Can you shed some light on operation sno-cat cascade?[/QUOTE

the trip took place in 1948 and was from the california border to the washington border, up the Oregon Cascades, two tucker machines made the trip, it was organized by R A Work of the soil conservation service, and J J Tucker, from tucker sno-cat, Nat Geo covered the trip and there is wonderful full color film of this amazing trip, now, at Cats Meow, we plan to show the film from this trip, also, sno-drifter has studied this trip and is quite knowledgeable, hopefully he will share his thoughts on this grand adventure.

If this event were a bit closer, and not so late, (I'm a farmer and we plant in April!) I would love to attend.

When the time comes, post up plenty of pictures of your event. And most of all have a ball, and enjoy yourselves. You only live but once.:wink:

These snow cat get togethers are such a great time for like minded weirdo's :whistling: to get together with these fine old machines.

I hope you have all the snow you've been dreaming about. Here in Iowa tonight it is quickly falling below zero, and not enough snow to run a machine well. May your snow be deep, and powdery..:biggrin:

Regards, Kirk
 
I've done some prepping for the meet. I bought a galvanized trailer for the st4 and removed the blade on the canyon. I didn't think the blade was needed at timberline and we all seen them.
today's picture during sunrise.
soon as I get my tongue weight it may be moved forward.

I'm sure looking forward to this. I'm spreading the word around here and I know several people that plan to come up and check out the action.
It's been a crazy winter so far. I haven't had the snow trac out in about a month! Great weather but tough to get up to the snow.
Sounds like a change in the weather is coming soon though.
I haven't made any reservations yet but do plan to spend at least one night and probably two up there. We live relatively close and we'll be up there each day of the event.
I'm not going to be "that guy"! :biggrin:
 
maybe repost the link to the event??
some of the local cat owners are curious on what is going on.

gee Randy your wife wont go with you mine has been in many trips with the snow trac and even likes to squeeze in to Brutis with me.
 
here is the latest on the Cat's Meow Jamboree, any questions, please contact me or Scott, and a big thank you to all that have made reservations, looking forward to a wonderful event. tuckerville

also, along with Peter Fuchs being a guest speaker, his fathers sno-cat will be at Timberline, Rock&Roll, this will be a very historic moment, along with Tucker Inc. bringing a new machine to the event.

Salem to TuckerVille - Count me in - Vlad & I should be there, on our way to Timberline.
 
Nikson, will be letting us see his latest and greatest snowcat, got to say, looks very good and everyone should enjoy seeing it, another unveiling at the cat's meow!!!
 
Amazed that it's still in the 60's out there. Yesterday was the first day above 40 degrees in 53 days here. Seems longer.
Doing the snow dance for the PNW :rock:. Looking like rain next week, but hopefully that will be snow up high . . .:letitsnow: A lot.
