Hi Kory, as for the PETT, bring a tarp, open the two doors, drape the tarp between them and set up right there. It's very private and all essentials can be put away in record time. This is a been there, done that kind of thing.

Hope to see you again.

Re: Coyote Flats Memorial Day Weekend blowout

put me down as a maybe. we did this trail last year and it was fun and scenic. are you planning to camp at the end of the trail by Baker Creek? there is a nice meadow there with beautiful views.

Im prerunning it in a couple of weeks, so I have not been there yet, although I have been to the are quite oftem. From what I have been reading, Baker creek is the area to do a group camp, but, I will verify when we get there on the pre-run. Also thinking of doing a couple of other tarails in the area, maybe see Bodie
