Accommodations are up to you, but the leader is planning to stay in a nearby hotel. Camping is available at Beacon State Park. Last year the price was $25/night and many sites are for 2 cars and up to 8 people. A Discover Pass is required at Beacon State Park. Very bad weather will cancel the trip so please be prepared for this as you may lose your camp fee if you stay there.
More information will be sent to participants the week before the trip, but feel free to reach out to the others on the roster for carpooling and accommodation planning.
