If this works like last year, we will have a couple of busses on Friday for the SHM. It's about 50 miles from Boise to Murphy, then another 8-10 out to the mill. Plenty of time to mingle and talk if they use the busses again. On Saturday, we go to vans (8 passenger) because we have to climb the mountain and no way will the big busses make it. By that time you should have an idea of who you want to ride with. The van drivers last year were employees (the guys who run the equipment on the mountain) and very knowledgeable. You will get a lot of info out of them.
