     Additional Information:

    Plan on a 2 hour drive time under normal conditions...rush hour not included.

     

    Mike Baker will be checking in everyone and getting parking and bathroom passes....come see Mike to get them when you arrive!

     

    Mike will be marking the Pioneer Campsite entry with signage and balloons to make it easier to find. In case the gate is locked...the code is 2002. The lock is old, so keep trying it. Mike will leave it open for an easier arrival, but can't garuantee that the park rangers won't close it.

     

    Remember we have campsites 1, 2 and 4....plenty of space. Mike will be arriving early Friday morning and will be setting up at Site #2...so you can find him.
