Flash Camp!
You've heard of "flash mobs" where people meet at a specific place for a hasty project or gathering using cell phones to know where and when to meet. This is similar but *way* more laid back and the fun lasts far longer! It's a flash camping get-together for a weekend, where you can arrive early or late.



DATE: SEPTEMBER 9-11, 2011

PLACE: Five miles to town, but remote and rustic, in the hinterland of the mythical State of Jefferson. Rockhounding sites and ancient archaeological sites abound. (Including the cave with the oldest known evidence of the presence of humans in the Americas, 14,000 years ago!) Fabulous, commercial hot spring nearby. (Bring bathing suit, bath towel and extra money.) Exact location to be announced September 7th only to respondents. Driving time from Sacramento: 5 hours, from Eureka: 6 hours, from Portland: 5 hours, from Eugene: 3.5 hours from Medford: 3.5 hours, from Redding: 3.5 hours.

The mythical State of Jefferson


COST: $15-20 per camping site per night. No doubling up.

CONDITIONS: Near river with spectacular mountain views. Cool nights and 70-90 degree days. Flush toilets, coin-operated hot shower but dry-camping conditions. U.S. Forest Service drinking water, but bring a 5-gallon jug full anyway. Be prepared for any kind of weather.

STIPULATIONS: You will be preparing one really nice meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner) at your expense for everyone in the small group. (But not Saturday's dinner, which I'm cooking for everyone, 3 courses---salad, hot main dish and dessert.) Bring your own beverages.

GROUP SIZE: Limited to six. Only the first six respondents to this post who commit to coming will know where to go. Six means a maximum of six trailers/RVs.

HOW TO GET IN: Send me a PRIVATE MESSAGE via Facebook or these forums. First six only.

If you're adventurous, you'll enjoy the scenic views and the experience. Bring a telescope and/or binoculars, a drum, a guitar, a banjo, a fiddle, a flute, a harmonica, hiking boots, a Dutch oven, etc. Prize for best cowboy hat, so dress cowboy/cowgirl and wear paisley. Enough said. The first Flash Camp is ON. Are you IN?

Heck, I'd come in a heartbeat but it's a wee bit too far for a weekend drive from Wisconsin.

Sounds like a lot of fun! Have a great time!

Love the idea, but can't make it!

Nice idea, sorry I can't make it that weekend. I'm within range.

Thank you Admin! Much appreciated.

Dear Prem,

Great Idea! I hope it catches on.

Prem,

Have a great camp. I can't quite make it that far from here (about 3000 mi R/T)

I added a photo of the general area and the type of scenery to expect.

Prem

I like your thinking!

Wish I was closer!

What a beautiful place. If I had it I would think twice about even telling six best camp buds. Would be signing up with you in a heartbeat, except we are separated ny too many miles and too little time. Think we will arrayed a flash camp for KAMO.

100 people in about 60 vehicles crashed our gathering and it was FABULOUS! I'm not kidding.



Watch for a future FLASH CAMP.

So, you had a Flash Crash?

Thats awesome! Definitely need some pictures!

I haven't used this site too much except for searches so I am woefully lame at uploading pictures. But I did get some pictures up loaded to Teardrops & Tiny Travel Trailers Forum Index -> Album -> Personal Gallery of ChucksterAce. See if you can get to them if not I'll post them on my Face book site. Give it a try and let me know what happens.
