August long weekend - Apex /Nickel Plate Lake

Post by Red Rock »

July 29-August 1 we will be camping at Nickel Plate Lake. This is the precise location of the campsite. https://goo.gl/maps/mUZZiTwLF6DondH97

There are multiple trails in the area for us to explore. We know that there is an unfortunate habit of local ATVers to only cut the trail wide enough for them so please consider bringing a chainsaw or other equipment to assist in trail clearing.

The campsite is accessible for trailers/campers. I plan to head up on the Thursday night or Friday morning to try and secure our spot. This campsite can be quite popular so getting there early is important.

For those who haven't been there before, the campsite is at around 6000 feet elevation. That means it can get warm during the day but chilly at night. Pack accordingly. There is likely to be a campfire ban in effect at the time so we may want to bring a propane fire for the camp.

Post up if you plan to attend and when you intend to get there.

Little early to call 100%, but my plan would be to head up Friday afternoon, head home on the Monday.
It's longer now!
