The CAMPSITE: I reserved 2 campsites at Juniper Camping loop that are good for 8 per site but I am guessing these are for small tents. So, please try to bring small tents and if you are bringing a large one then I hope you are sharing with others. There are water and electric outlets at the campsites & restrooms/showers are nearby. Campsites have 2 vehicle per site limit and additional vehicles have to pay $5 per night. So I would recommend carpooling.

CAMPSITE COSTS: $12/person, Non-Refundable. I can help you sell your spot to the waiting list if there is change in schedule.

CAMPING CHECKLIST FOR BEGINNERS: In case you need some guidance or advice CLICK HERE (http://files.meetup.com/1731871/H.A.T.s_Camping_List.pdf).

FOOD: I plan to eat out at nearby restaurants (to posted with the hike events as Optional After Hike Events). Every one is free to organize individually or by their carpools.

Dinner Location just in case you want to join:

Friday: Canyon TX, TBD

Saturday: Canyon, TX, TBD

Sunday: Amarillo, TX
