I'd be up for that. I missed last year's 13er group since I was still in a cast. I'm guessing it's $200 like the other times.

I would also be interested in doing a group of 13ers.

Any idea if they'll eventually open Sundays, etc or do they only do Friday and Saturday reservations all summer?

It would be nice if they'd open it up for Sunday hikes. I'm pretty sure most of the hunters who pay to hunt on the ranch don't skip Sundays.

Anyone know how quickly these folks get back to you on average? I booked and payed on Sunday, but haven't got anything formal from them. Just the first email saying "this email is not a confirmation."

Appreciate the help.

You just print the paypal receipt confirmation and the waiver form, that's it. The paypal receipt came 2 minutes after booking...

They're def. on top of things - you'll be greeted at the gate by the ranch manager dude, you'll sign in/out. It's a total pro operation. Enjoy your time!

$51,750. . . not too shabby.
