2008 Camp Swank - Page 26

Weekend of June 7 and 8 would work for me. As for lodgings, if the weather permits, I'll likely sleep beneath a canopy of stars.

Those dates are fine with me.

I did hear back from Kings Canyon. All campgrounds open for Memorial Day then they close some based on "what maintenance wants to do". In my experience, Sheep Creek and Sentinel are the ones that stay open. Of course, if they have a freak snow storm, the entire canyon would be closed since the road will be closed, but that's unlikely. They suggested we call the week before to double check on Sheep Creek.

I also talked about the group sites. "D" in Canyon View is on the river, but we'd have to have a group of 20 or more to reserve and the mid-size group sites are on a first-come, first-served basis. So, either way, we're winging it.
