********** This event is cancelled/modified**********************
UPTATES: Ralph at the gristmill is willing to allow us to camp on his property (suggested donation of $10 per tent per night). Mitch and I are going to stay at the Gristmill, but, there will be no community meals. If you would still like to come and climb with PA climbers, I suggest that you camp at the Gristmill. Please email Ralph ( ralph@tuthilltown.com) if you are planning to camp. (This is not a public camp ground, this is a private residence) You will be responsible for your own payments etc. Please see the information about the gristmill by following this link:

Unfortunately we have lost the use of the hostel due to circumstances beyond my immediate control.
To those of you that have sent checks, let me know if I can tear them up or send them back to you.
I apologize for the late notice and the inconvenience.

Just curious, why is the PA gathering never in PA? I think its great to have one and I know the Gunk's is a great place but would'nt a roundup of PA climbers at a Pa crag be fun?

I will not be able to attend this year, as I will be at a wedding (not mine) that weekend.
Perhaps someone else will step up and offer to set up ropes at Peterskill for those climbers attending who might not be able to lead...?

Gail,
Thanks for putting this together. Ah, cooler weather, nice folks, and good climbing await. I've been looking forward to this.
I should be able to offer a ride to 2~4 people, leaving from Philly, and I'm looking for climbing partners. I'm happy to lead to 5.7+, or follow on somewhat harder stuff.
Contact me privately for details about transportation or partnering.

Kurt and I will be there. Probably camping at the MUA though, maybe we'll change our minds but for now count us out for the hostel. Let me know if I can help with dinner or breakfast or something...

I'm in. I'll be camping again... hoping for less rain this year. Just starting with trad, so I'm looking for a few people who want to do some mock trad leads just down the road at Peterskill. Anyone?

ok
I am from PA.
What if I end up climbing at the Gunks during the gathering weekend? Will I be shunned for not staying with everyone, or will at least some of you acknowledge my presence. I would like to meet some climbers from Pa.
thanks

Join us for the community meals...we will be at the hostel on Main street at about 7ish on Saturday evening. You will have a chance to meet some PA climbers.

I (Doug) plan on attending, but will be camping with Agnes at the MUA - hope there is no rain since the hostel is full.
Any decision on what dinner will consist of?

In the past we have enjoyed:
Lasagna
Chilli
Spagetti
accompanied by salad, bread, brownies.
There is always a vegetarian option.
I am not sure what we are having this year...I have to think about it.

In reply to: It's that time of year.. .The New Paltz Hostel is booked for Friday September 29th through Sunday, October 1st. (The hostel sleeps 16, so sign up early if you want a bed.) Pennsylvania climbers come meet other local PA climbers at our annual Gunks gathering. (Even non PA climbers are allowed...you coming darkside? Happiegrl?)
Unfortunately Gail, I now live some 3000km away in Calgary. Alberta. For the record, I have enjoyed v1.0 thru 3.0 but I'm going to have to miss out in future. On a personal note, if you ever get out to the Canadian Rockies, I'd love to hear from you and show you around some of the crags round here. The Gunks will always be a great climbing area but too far for a weekend now.
For anyone considering the gathering, do it. Hanging out at the hostel is great even if you are staying at the MUA. Even when we have been rained off, we have had some great times in previous years. It's earlier this year so no Halloween shenanigans but the rock should hopefully be a little warmer.
Have fun, all.

Kim, Dan - we should meet up at the bar afterward for some brews.
