In January we are setting up a winter hike in RRG with "camping" in the RRG Hostel. Think slumber party with all your friends in one big room. We check in on Friday night 1/15 and check out on Sunday 1/17.

See the place: http://www.truenortho... (very pretty inside)

We can fit 22 people in bunks, and 3 more on air mattresses (last 3 people who signed up are on air mattresses, these were wait list folks). Plan is to stay Friday night and Staturday night. Hike on Saturday, maybe on Sunday too. Sleeping on rows of bunk beds in a big loft with lots of other people.

Cost will be $38 per person which will pay for your bunk bed Fri/Sat, hot breakfast cooked for you each morning (and no dishes to wash), showers, earplugs, and taxes. If you like to go to bed early and would like to have a non-loft room for a little more privacy the cost will be $44 in the 6 person room or $48 in the 4 person room, please put your room request in the RSVP comments. I will make every attempt to accommodate requests in a fair and reasonable way (but there are not guarantees - so no pouting if you don't get your way). Everyone will be charged $38 per person to RSVP, if you get a non-loft room, you will be asked to pay the difference once we are on site. Please only sign up when you are sure that you are able to go, NO REFUNDS on this trip.

The hostel is very nice with a large common room downstairs to sit around and talk into the wee hours of the night. Pack some drinks and snacks for the evenings. There is a restaurant on site for lunch and dinner (which you have to pay for).

Specific hiking details will be posted later.
