Start: 2025-11-14T16:00:00.000Z
Location: Scripps/Poway Park & Ride

**Weekend Getaway to Mt. San Jacinto – Stone Creek Campground**

Join the Weekend Outside group for a relaxing weekend escape from the heat at beautiful Mt. San Jacinto. We’ll be camping at Stone Creek Campground (Sites 36 & 37), surrounded by fresh air, tall pines, and cooler mountain temps.

**What to Expect:**
This is a casual, social camping trip—not a guided event. Everyone is free to do their own thing:
• Hike nearby trails
• Go fishing
• Explore the area
• Or simply relax at the campsite with good company

Once we get closer to the event, we can coordinate an activity in the morning, since check in to the campsite is at 2:00pm.

Bring your own camping gear, food, and anything else you need for a fun and comfortable weekend outside.

**Saturday Plan:** Meet in the morning with those who want to caravan together. Do a morning activity (not sure what yet), arrive to the campsite after 2pm, check in, set-up and relax. If you are looking for things to do, check out https://idyllwildcalifornia.com/

**Sunday Plan:** After checkout (12pm latest), we plan to head into town for lunch and a bit of exploring. You're welcome to join.

If you don’t have camping gear, message me for gear options. I have tents, chairs, headlamps etc. I also have sleeping bags, but they cost extra since there's dry cleaning cost to it.
