Additional Information

This is a Wilderness Camping Trip.

Because of Covid restrictions we will not be sharing tents unless with a partner, nor will we be sharing meals.

There are 4 tent pads on one site and 2 on the other.

There is some cell reception in The Massassuaga.

If you cannot make it Wednesday, June 30, we will be returning to the launch spot July 1 to pick up anyone coming a day late. Same trip fees apply.

We'll have a pre trip meeting (virtual) to go over details and arrival days.
