Deposits and payment

2007-06-16 by Skaught

We need your $100 deposit this weekend so I have enough time to get it out of paypal in time for the event.  Only about half the attendees have sent it so far.

PayPal $100 to scott@scottarmstrong.ca or if can afford to the entire $400 would be usefull as we can use that to start buying food and supplies.

More details to follow soon, from ds

We did our last prep weekend at the mine and accomplished a ton.

We finished clearing the trail and can now drive directly to the mine entrance on Level 3 and Level 2 and the glory hole are a 3 minute walk away.

We abseiled into the glory hole and it was increddible!

We also found the entrance to level 9 and allthough it is caved in we think we can dig it out.  We had to build a zipline over the river to get to it!

We are sooo pumped this will be epic beyond epic.  Check out Skaught's latest photos on uea.ca for a few pics from the weekend.
