What: Spring Camping Trip
When: Friday June 5-7
Where: Black Rock Desert
Meet Up: Bruno's Country Club, 445 Main St, Gerlach, NV 89412 (40.652141, -119.354022)
Time: 3PM
Travel Time: 2 hours to the meetup in Gerlach. 2 hours to the campsite at Soldier Meadows, High Rock ???
Details
The Campsite is at 41.35151 -119.22383 and is short walk to several hot springs and a patch of wetland. The trails are stock friendly. It is near Solider Meadows. The GPS coordinates above link to the GaiaGPS waypoint and I am experimenting with OnX Offroad now too. There is a Shell station down the street from Bruno's so we can all gas up before hitting the trails.
What to Bring: Bug repellent! Red light filters for flashlights (keeps the bugs away and keeps it dark for stargazing). Camping gear including heaters, fire wood, and other things to keep you warm. Food, water, chairs as well as bathing suits if you plan to avail yourselves of the hot springs. No skinny dipping! Make sure you bring water shoes... oh and BUG REPELLENT!
There are no public restrooms or showers! Bring your own TP, shovels, buckets, whatever you need to do your business far, FAR from the camp site
The plan is to hang out until mid morning at the campsite on Saturday so others who cannot meet up on Friday can meet us on Saturday morning before we head through High Rock Canyon. For those who want to camp an extra night, we will probably pitch tents around Steve's Camp assuming there is space. There are lots of other spots along the way though so stay flexible.
Please add any details I may not know @Krusty Krab , @DesertLake , @CV Kurt , @MagmaFJ, @rusty_tlc
