    Does anyone know if its cheaper to share a camp site with someone else or go alone. Because if its cheaper i was going to see if i could go in on a site with someone if they dont mind. Id pay you when we got there for my part. But if we can save some money why not. If anyone is interested let me know since ill be coming by myself to camp that Thursday.

    It's just one big site, the only way to split costs would be to shack up in a tent together. We just reserve the whole primitive area and put up tents where ever there is room.

    Wanna say it is about $30 per night. I will confirm the price for everyone and will post all the details in the coming weeks for everyone.

    I think all of those are great camping ideas for your daughters Pearce but I think I have to question your judgement on the flask. I agree a flask can be a great camping item for adults but for kids I'm not so sure. Guess if they drink kool-aid out of it its alright!

    "Two cops and a preacher are on a road trip...."

    Do you usually have very many women at this event?? I'd love to go but don't want to be the odd-man (or girl!) out!

    There are several women at the shoot, there is an award for highest women's score. Camping leans more towards the men, a few women were there last year and joined in the festivities. Talk to Kristine, she was there for it all last year and had a good time.
