Several of us High Roaders (Utah Chapter) had a great get together and shoot near Strawberry Reservior. I took a few pics. I missed out on part of the adventure so I'll type my 2 cents and rely on the others for the review the rest.
Doug (B.I.L.) and I headed up at about 6am Saturday morning. The rest of the bunch had spent the night. Strawberry is about an hour and a half drive from my house. The weather did not look promising. We did not have too much trouble locating the camp. It was raining pretty good when we got there.
We got to meet everyone right away. I know I'll forget someone so I'll apologize in advance. There was GOET, his Brother, his Wife, skyder, CrudeGT, Ben Shepard, and Larry Corea who had all spent Friday night camping. I hear they were treated to some great cooking by GOET's wife. CrudeGT experienced baptism by fire as this was his first camping trip. He ended up sleeping on the picnic table in the rain. Luckily people had extra blankets and he weathered the storm alright.
It cleared up a couple of hours after we arrive and we set out for the shooting spot that had been picked out the night before. B.I.L. and I were loaded for bear with just about every firearm we own. We also brought along plenty of stuff to shoot at. There were a lot of great guns brought to the shoot. I have to give the award to skyder for having the coolest toys.
Now enough rambling. I'll get to the pics.
Larry Correa give our bowling pin shoot a try. He had a great time of 3.83 which stood as the best for most of the day. He was finally knocked out of the number one spot by me. Somehow I was able to pull of a 3.27 with my new Springfield Loaded.
Doug and I made some lifesize cutout targets a while back. They were made by tracing Doug's outline on the cardboard while he layed on it. We have affectionately called these targets "The Dougs". So here we have Doug with Doug.

I'll save my case of outdated Coke for the next go-'round.
