I just need to know....

Do I need to bring my own gear?




                            Is camping permitted?  What are the fees?


                            
                           
                           Can I bring my motor home?




                           
                          Can I build a fire?


                           
                           
                          I don't drive.  Is there any public transportation?




                           Will I pass out?  Someone told me that the altitude
                            would cause me to be dizzy and that breathing
                            would be difficult.




                           What about food?
                          
                    










                          


                          When I camp or picnic I like to crack open "a cold
                            one".
                          Can I?





                          Can I bring my dog?

I know the answer to that!

You can bring any equipment you wish...but there will be plenty of rigs which you are welcome to use.




                         Yes...you may camp.  There is free dry camping at our
                          site or you may use one of the paid spaces in the fee areas. 
                         Spaces in the fee campgrounds go quickly and reservations are
                         suggested.


                        You can bring your motor home, there is room for a couple  
                        of units at our site. There also are a couple of RV camp-
                        grounds on Mt. Charleston, but again they fill up early.

                        
                        Typically, during the dry summer months, open fires are not
                        allowed.  Gas grills, stoves, and other contained devices
                        are permitted.
                        

                        There isn't any public transportation...but we have always 
                        been able to find a ride for anyone who wanted to go.
                        Just let us know a bit in advance. 
    
                        
                        Probably not.  Unless you are in extremely poor health. Our
                        site is a bit higher than Williams or Flagstaff, Arizona.  So if
                        you are able to visit either of those towns you shouldn't
                        experience any ill effects.
          

                        
                        John and Liz Bigley purchase and donate the food for the 
                        Friday Fried Chicken Picnic, Saturday and Sunday breakfasts, the 
                        Saturday night Luau Party food. Plus the snacks, and beverages  
                        for the weekend.  Frank and Linda Kostelac provide omelets to
                        accompany Saturday breakfast.  The Sisterhood Of Amateur
                        Radio donates the Saturday lunch.

                        We set-up and operate a full field kitchen.

                        Sandwich fixin's, chips, crackers, soda, water,
                        coffee, tea, snacks are also on hand all weekend...help yourself.
                        "Pot Luck" dishes aren't necessary but if you would like to
                        bring one to share it will be appreciated.
                        
                      
                       Yes.  But please be mindful that this is a family type event with                            children present.  If you partake please do so discreetly and in                              moderation.                     
                                                                                                                            
                     
                     

                      You may bring your dog. However, U.S. National Wildlife Area
                      regulations require that your dog be on a leash at all times.
                      Of course YOU must clean up your dog's waste.
