I would love to hear what everyone has planned for their pre-shootouts (now that everyone's schedule should be figured out).
Here's the pre-shootout plans for Skippy, April, and me...
Saturday Oct 4, arrive in Flagstaff, AZ and head to Sedona, AZ
Sunday Oct 5, sunrise shots in Sedona from a hotair balloon
Monday Oct 6, sunrise shots in Sedona from ground level, then head up to South rim of Grand Canyon
Tuesday Oct 7, more Grand Canyon
Wednesday Oct 8, head up to Moab.
Maybe we'll cross paths with some of you.
I'm sorry that I'll miss you guys on the pre-shootout, I'm flying into Vegas on the 7th. I'll be crusing around Vegas the week following (heading home on the 17th) if you guys will still be in the area.
A group of us (me, Shiz, Teresa and Lee) are doing a roadtrip from CA
Sat: Mountain View, CA > Lee Vining, CA. Shooting: Bodie, Yosemite, Mono Lake
Sun: Lee Vining, CA > Beatty, NV. Shooting: Mono Lake, Alabama Hills, Death Valley
Mon: Beatty, NV > Somewhere near Zion/Bryce. Shooting: Death Valley, Las Vegas, Zion
Tue: Somewhere near Zion/Bryce > Page, AZ. Shooting: Bryce, Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend
Wed: Page, AZ > Moab, AZ. Shooting: Horseshoe Bend, Lake Powell, Monument Valley
Devbobo- your planning to hit all of those or one a day? That is quite the list. :oogle
My group (Nikolai, Jdryan3, & kdog) is doing the following:
Sat. - early AM Sedona- then drive to Page - camping on a remote plateau
Sun. - continue shooting around Page
Mon. - sunrise in Page then head to Canyon De Chelly - camping in canyon
Tues. - sunrise in Canyon De Chelly then unknown at this point.
Monument Valley, Goosenecks, and whatever else we find along the way to the meetup.
Sun. - Mesa Verde before heading back to Phoenix

well, that's the general route we are taking and will be passing those locations on the way. At this point, we don't know if we will make them all or how long we'll get at each place...but we'll give it a good shot

Definitely more photo ops, but it can't beat sitting on a train for 24 hours drinking beer
Sun: Lee Vining, CA > Beatty, NV. Shooting: Mono Lake, Alabama Hills, Death Valley
Mon: Beatty, NV > Somewhere near Zion/Bryce. Shooting: Death Valley, Las Vegas, Zion
Staying in Beatty but not shooting Rhyolite?
By the way, you will be driving past my house once you hit Vegas. And you will know when you get here--the northwest valley along the 95 hwy goes from barren desert to tract homes in the blick of an eye.

Hmmm, figured out? Well, er ...kinda
Oct 2 - Leaving Chicagoland for parts west
Oct 3 - Arriving Ft Collins or Denver area depending on route taken
- maybe look for some fall color. (aspens??)
Oct 4 - sidetrip stop in Grand Juction/Fruita - arrive Moab PM
Oct 5-8
Thinking of a day trip south toward Natural Bridges
Thinking of a trip (maybe overnight) to Goblin Valley & LWHC
I'll probably hang near Moab for a day or two
I've got a bedroom floor partially obscured with guide books, maps & printouts.The internet is a wonderful thing except when it presents too many options. I'm not going to 'wing' this trip, but I figured to leave the a few days a bit squishy so I can pick what looks to be the most fun.
I'm up for shooting just about anything living or not, moving or not (will RUN from moving dead things!).
If you'll be nearby give me a shout. I'll be driving a Silver Honda Pilot w/ IL plates.
I told Kate, "Let's just play it by ear this trip."
She says "Ok."
Then I get this email. (that she also sent to Grimace cause we will be meeting up with him along the way)
I thought I was going on vacation.:D
The Email:
This is what I have as a tentative pre-shoot itinerary for D+K.
Things will change as we go, but basically follow this plan.
Flexibility is key.
The things listed between Santa Fe and Monument Valley
I particularly want to be sure to hit. That would be the ruins
and glyphs near them.
There are some interesting shots on some websites of night
ruins, with the time lapse star trails and also with backlit
canyon walls behind them, or with lit ruins.
If you have a 1,000,000 candle power light bring it. I hope to
find one. Don't forget the flashlights, walkie talkies, and
compasses (where's north star?) boys and girls!
Adam, I have photocopies of Scenic Driving Utah for you.
Has all the best routes (that's rooots in Ann-speak!).
Do you want to borrow my big fat tome Ghost Towns to
photocopy again? There are lots in Colorado.

If you have a 1,000,000 candle power light bring it. I hope to

Well you are in luck. I know where you can find one every night in Moab.
There is an outfit called Canyonlands By Night which will take you up the river from Moab after dusk and then float down back. While they float they have a truck with a HUGE light follow along the river road and illuminate the canyon walls on and off. Sounds funky but it is actually quite cool, and a whole lot less wear and tear on the canyons than those d*&%mn 4x4s and ORVs.
They start at about Negro Bill Canyon and follow the boat down to the bridge in town. I've always wondered what kind of time exposed shot I could take posed on top of the cliff just below Shrimp Rock on the Slickrock Trail looking upriver as the light truck came slowly down. Talk to Canyonlands by Night to get their schedule, and scout the setup areas before. I can think of very few areas that are high enough for the shot and are climbable with gear, I'm betting you'll have to get on the Slickrock Trail for a good perspective.
Any takers?
By the by, what is the moon like at that time? Another killer night shot with moon might be from Shrimp Rock toward the LaSals (kill two birds with one setting). Follow that with a moonlit mountain bike back to the car and you'd have an evening to talk about (been there, done that, bring your helmet!).
Or maybe an upriver shot from the top of the Golden Staircase looking toward Fisher Towers (the trail starts at Red Cliffs Lodge, but beware, it is tough, and hard to find... might be good to have a local on board ;-) ).

Couting Down The Sleeps It's that time of the year again when I just have to say how many sleeps are left
8 More Sleeps To Gooooooo!
I haven't told the Cat yet, though she seems to love the suitecase, she has thrown herself all over it, rubbed her face all over it, leaned on it, walked on, stood on it, even jumped on it......thank goodness she didnt pee on it
Hmmmmm wonder at what stage I should tell her she's about to share the house with Scientist for a few weeks
See a bunch of you real soon, take care, stay safe

Maxine - when do you arrive? Are you starting out at Aprils? I sent your hats to April, so you will have them this trip.
I am sure going to miss y'all. Have a great time, and lots of fun.
ann
Hi there Ann, yes I'm staying at Aprils place, arriving on September 29th.
Gotta travel lighter this time.
I wish you and Daryl were coming too, but alas Soccer is on and I know what your family is like when it comes to Soccer
Don't worry about the hat Ann, I brought a new one last year when I stayed at Aprils after leaving your place, I don't need it.
I am sure going to miss y'all. Have a great time, and lots of fun.
ann
Hey, you said "y'all"!!! You spelled it correctly and everything! I'm sorry you won't be in Utah but I hope you have a great time at the soccer tourney!!
Skippy,
5 more sleeps!!! Have a great time on the preshootout, I'm sure April will have a laptop or some cool tech gizmo, you guys better post some photos to tantalize us!

Too bad you shoot Nikon. I decided if I couldn't be at the shoot, one of my lenses had to be - it is in April's care right now!
Soccer just won't measure up to being with you guys!

Don't worry Christina, I'll share my lenses with you. I owe you big time for saving my butt last year with your D50!
Besides, you and I might be the only 2 Nikon shooters at this thing. We can sit at the "I want a D700" table while everyone else is at the "I want a 5D mkII" table

Get some sleep on that flight Skippy, after you get here you know sleep will be hard to come by.
actually, I have always found that the quickest way to get over jetlag on the long flights from Australia, is to watch like 5 movies and get around 2-3 hours sleep.
Okay...the post shootout fuzziness should be clearing. Lets hear some feedback here...ideas for improvements, what worked, what didn't. Have your say to help the shootouts evolve from the quiet get together of 20 (Shootout #1) to the event of the year that they are now. This is your chance to make the best better!

I'm sorry that I'll miss you guys on the pre-shootout, I'm flying into Vegas on the 7th. I'll be crusing around Vegas the week following (heading home on the 17th) if you guys will still be in the area.
