Logistics

Brown Creek Campground

An email will be sent out prior to the trip to determine final campsite and carpool logistics. The trip leaders will be arriving late Wednesday or early Thursday to reserve first-come first-serve campsites for the group. The $15 fee will help cover the campsite fees.

The campground is primitive with pit toilets and no potable water. Bugs are often plentiful in this area so bring adequate protection. Most campsites fit 2-3 vehicles and 2-3 small tents or 1 large tent. Final campsite logistics TBD prior to event.
