ATV’s, Hiking, & Butterflies, Car Camp

$35.00 members/$55 non-members
Trip Leaders: Michael Pennon &
Solomon N’Dung’u (SBVC),
Klaus Gerhart (LA)
Right On SBVC! Our February 2010 outing is put together
by 2 new trip leaders from the SBVC chapter, and Klaus in
LA. Renting ATV’s for a few hours of fast, reckless driving
on a gorgeous beach/dunes … well, that’s EXACTLY what Saturdays
are FOR! This, juxtaposed with an amateur get-to-know-each-other
talent show/tea on Friday night, a regular GO Potluck on
Saturday night, and a visit to the Monarch Grove butterfly
park on Sunday should make for a unique, exciting, and varietal
Great Outdoors outing! Woohoo! (In addition to the fantastic
events planned by SBVC, Klaus is going to try to squeeze in a
decent hike or run early on Saturday morning before the
ATV adventure, and at least one pick-up game of Frisbee
on the beach!) We’ll see you there!

CAMPING TRIP - SALTON SEA
Including A Tour Of A Geothermal Plant
February 18-21, 2010
Trip Leaders: Scott Connelly (Palm Springs)
Scott is leading a camping trip to the Salton Sea State
Recreation Area (SRA). We'll be camping in the "New Camp"
campground located adjacent to the Visitor Center. The campground
is nice with shaded areas, picnic tables, fire pits, running
water, flush toilets and showers. Both tents and RVs can
be accommodated.
For those camping, a special tour of a geothermal plant
is being offered. We'll also have a couple of hikes, visit
to the mud volcanoes, a visual presentation of the San Andreas
Fault at the Salton Sea, a visit to Salvation Mountain and
a group potluck meal.

Outdoor Experience I - April 24-25, 2010
Outdoor experience II - May 14-16, 2010
It never hurts to be prepared for things unexpected.
Not only will you learn about keeping warm, choosing a campsite,
and making water safe to drink, but you'll be taught minimum
impact camping techniques so that you leave the natural
environment for others to enjoy as well. A portion of the
training covers group management and GREAT OUTDOORS
leadership skills. Trip Notes:
Phase
I &
Phase
