Front Gate elevation is about 7800 feet and there is a beautiful way
station that Summerbreeze and Raven have set up to welcome folks home
and where they can chill for the night. From there, it's about 2 miles
to the trailhead and then 200 yards to Welcome Home and then a 2 1/2
mile walk to main meadow NOT TEN MILES AS SOME HAVE POSTED HERE. Also,
there is a middle back gate with a bus village that is only a mile
walk to main meadow. Main Meadow IS about 9,200 feet, so yes, it is a
challenge for the disabled but still doable, with help, which is there
and waiting. There are about 6000-7000 of us there now, with more
arriving all the time.

Mostly, folks are working together and making this work, FS included.

Front Gate this year is the most peaceful and serene I have seen in
years.

Loving you all, family!
Take care!
Hope to see you at Main Meadow.

Don't have a weather report, but I'm packing my wool coat up the front
trail. Looks like you can get in the back. Ask how when you get
close. ~All you are seeking is also seeking you.~

Welcome Home mama, kids and Mr. Bumknee!
