Access to the river is by stairs or a short, fairly steep trail. A small, accessible creek also runs nearby.

Food: Breakfast, picnic lunch, and family-style dinner will be provided each full day (including dinner on the first day and breakfast on the last day). You are also welcome to bring your own meals and snacks, if you choose. Accommodations for gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian/vegan can be made – please be sure to include this information with your registration.
