SAFETY FIRST
Please do not sign up unless you're fully vaccinated for COVID-19. This trip may be changed or canceled due to public health guidance, wildfires, weather, or other circumstances.
CAR CAMPING
Leader has 2 car camping campsites reserved in the A Loop of the state park campground. Each campsite officially is allowed to host up to 8 people and it looks like they'll host 2-3 tents each.
- Payment for your share of the camping fee is expected before your registration will be finalized.
- Any cancellation after registration closes on May 1, 2022 = no refunds will be issued.
- Campsites only include 1 parking space each so please expect to pay the extra vehicle fee to park your car, which is currently $7.00/night.
If you'd like to book your own campsite, I'd highly recommend doing so ASAP as this campground does fill up 100% on most weekends.
