Town is 10 minutes from our base, with ample restaurants and grocery store options. Available for student is a standard refrigerator, one microwave, coffee pot and hot water urn. Students will each have a cubby to use for dry food storage and access to dishwashing and bear-proof trash and recycling disposal. Students who bring camp stoves can cook outside under the pavilion – be sure to bring all your own pots and eating ware.

Lodging:  Camping or bunkhouse $30

Camping (bring your own gear) is near the classroom and parking lot, or bunk space (bring your sleeping bag and pillow) is available by reservation. The bunkhouse (aka the Nook) is located by foot, up the trail behind the classroom – expect a 5-10 minute hike to get there (bring a backpack instead of a suitcase), heated space with window fans if needed to cool off, and a port-a-john. There is no running water at the Nook. Campers are invited to use the showers in the Downstream classroom. Students may also opt to camp in their vehicles in the parking area. The camping fee applies, and they may use the campers’ showers. No electric or water hookup is available.

You may arrive between 12PM-9PM the day before the course starts for self-checkin. Housing assignments and the grounds orientation will be posted in the classroom lobby. If you cannot arrive by 9PM, you may arrive at 7:45AM on the first day of your course. Class begins promptly at 8AM.

Students must be packed and moved out prior to 8AM on the last day of the course.
