LOGISTICS
​
Campsite- Meet our staff at our group campsite at Lost Creek Group Campsite deep within Lassen Volcanic National Park between 3:00-5:00pm on day 1. Specific directions and instructions will be provided when you book your trip. Early or late arrivals may be possible with advances notice. Note: there is a $30 per vehicle entrance fee to enter the park (not included in trip price). Please carpool if you are traveling with friends/ family. Parking is limited. No trailers are permitted.
​
Our campsite features picnic tables, a fire pit, and plenty of room to spread out. There are clean outhouse style facilities (no flush toilets) a short walk from our site and water spigots are available. Our camp kitchen will provide infrastructure for washing hands and water for drinking.
​
You'll be camping approximately 5 miles from Manzanita Lake where you will find pay showers, flush toilets, coin operated laundry, and a camp store with ice and basic supplies.
​
There is no electricity at the campsite and limited to no cell reception- a great opportunity to disconnect! There are scattered locations nearby (within a few miles) where cell reception is available.
Camp Manager(s)- You will meet our staff at the campsite. They will show you around, get you oriented to your surroundings and our camp set-up, and will provide you with your camp gear and instructions on how to use it. Make your self comfortable!
Equipment- Our roomy 4-6 person tents are tall enough to stand in and comfortably accommodate 2-4 people. Our sleeping pads are thick and comfortable- some say as comfy as their bed at home. Each tent will also include a solar powered lantern and small table. Basically, everything needed for a comfortable camping experience.
Our camp also includes a complete kitchen set up allowing us to prepare terrific meals for the group, bug shelters if necessary, camp chairs, hand washing stations, and more.
Meals- Our camping trips include all terrific meals beginning dinner day 1 to lunch day 4. Breakfasts include delicious organic coffee, eggs, potatoes, fruits, pancakes and the like. Our lunch buffet will be available each morning for you to pack and take with you for the day. Dinners are generally 3 courses including appetizers, a main course and dessert. Dietary restrictions can generally be accommodated. Each participant will fill out a questionnaire prior to their trip regarding food allergies and preferences and we will do our best to accommodate you.
​
Activities- Each day our staff will lead a day hike for those who are interested in joining us, but you are free to explore as you wish. Activities in Lassen Volcanic National Park are plentiful and include exploring active steam vents, day hiking, lake kayaking (inflatable kayaks provided), swimming, fishing, and more.
​
All of our trips are participatory in nature with everyone casually contributing in small ways to camp logistics. For example setting up and taking down your tent, washing your own dish after meals, etc. Beyond these small contributions we'll take care of the rest. We have very well established systems (developed over 25 plus years conducting professionally guided camping trips) that make these "camp chores" simple, quick, and easy.
​
NOT INCLUDED
Transportation, sleeping bags, and park entrance fee.
​
We provide additional materials to help you prepare for your trip when you book with us and are here to help you in any way we can.
