FAQs
Can I bring my own firearms?
Yes! We’ll be in a remote, safe area ideal for shooting. Feel free to bring your own firearms and ammo.
What if I don't want to shoot?
That’s totally fine! This trip is about fun and relaxation. There are plenty of other things to do like hiking, chatting around the campfire, and enjoying the desert scenery.
Can I invite others?
Please do! Invite friends, neighbors, or anyone who would benefit from a good community of men. Just make sure they register so we know who’s coming.
What about food?
We’ll provide dinner on Friday, all meals on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday for those who join the group meal plan. Alternatively, you can bring your own food if you prefer. Be sure to also bring your own snacks and water (there is no water at camp).
What will this cost?
We will determine final costs once we've purchased food. If you join in the group meals, plan to spend about $125 to pitch in for food costs. If you're bringing your own food, then you should plan to pitch in about $25 for group supplies. In either case, if you can't afford to help, just let us know - we'd be happy to cover your costs.
If you plan to shoot and don’t bring your own ammo, you can pitch in for ammo costs (no pressure).
What are the facilities like?
This is a rugged campsite with no water, toilets, or buildings. We’ll rent porta-potties and provide key group supplies. Bring your own sleeping gear (tent, sleeping bag, etc.).
