THE VERMONT LEAF PEEPING S’MORE - OCTOBER 2-6, MARSHFIELD, VT
WHAT AND WHEN
Join us on October 2-6 CAMP’s first trip to Vermont!
The name of this S’more says it all: this is dedicated to all of us who love Fall colors. If you've been lucky enough to experience a peak Fall Foliage in Vermont, you might know what's in store - but if this is your first Autumn Adventure, prepare yourself for sensory overload because Fall in Vermont isn't just a season, it's an event!
Vermont is 78% forested, and it so happens that the vast majority of trees found there are maple, birch and beech. You see where this is going.
To make things even better, the riding in this area is spectacular!
There is the opportunity to have your bike transported back and forth from the Chicagoland at a fee - please drop a message about this at checkout. First come, first serve. You can also take advantage of CAMP Membership Plus, which includes 4 days of motorcycle rental. Up to you.
WHERE
Our base will be the New Discovery State Park, Located 20 miles North East of Montpelier, the State’s capital.
Located in the 27,000-acre Groton State Forest, New Discovery State Park was built by the CCC in the 1930's and today many of their stone fireplaces and log picnic pavilions are still in use. The park is a hub for the many miles of trails in Groton State Forest. The rocky, tree covered hillsides were originally cloaked with white pine, spruce, hemlock, beech, maple and birch. These were initially logged by local farmers for lumber, fuel and potash. The logging industry was large-scale for almost 100 years while the railroad was operating.
Although this will be a tent camping event, we have booked so called “lean to” structures. These are shelters where you can pitch your tent OR use as a community area to store gear and protect yourself from the elements, while pitching your tent outside. Showers, water, brick made grills are all available.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST AND WHAT’S INCLUDED?
This S’more costs $200 per person. This includes your camping spot for 4 nights in Lean to structures (see above), curated paved rides with relative GPX files and a riders’ info pack with things to do in the area, firewood and s’mores every night.
