Lots and lots of beer, mostly.  And a ticket.

Well, if my current plans hold up, I'll arrive very late Thursday
night.  Let's hope I can get through the gate.  There are usually
plenty of accommodations.  I've been trying to make a reservation for
PDML central, but I'll bring my tent, just in case.  It's fairly large
and you're welcome to it.  As for food, there always seems to be lots,
and those who can't exactly travel with a weekend's amount of food
never go hungry.  There are two meals included with the weekend and
sometimes a few of us will head down the mountain for the local fare.

You'll need a ticket for weekend.  I think they're $115 this year.
Money for food and beer.  And transportation.  You can definitely do
the GFM NPW on the cheap.

Year before last I made it to the top.  Last year I barely made it out
of the parking lot.  And you're never alone when you're guarding the
beer.  ;)
