City advice

What to pack

Bring a variety!

In the mountains, the weather varies a lot. Nights are chilly. Days vary. It might rain. And, the weather at places like Spruce Knob is totally different. It may be windy and cold up there and warmer at lower elevations. Bring clothes for any weather conditions. Also, bring extra shoes in case the yard is wet from rain. You will have to walk through the grass to get to your space. Bring along groceries and/or plan to eat out. Grocery stores are at least 35 minutes away. Nearby restaurant options are limited.
