    If you get a few guys together, the pocaterra site in Kanaskis is GREAT for medium sized groups (like 20-40). The fire pit is good, it feels really secluded, the cook shack is amazing for a group site like this -- it's fully enclosed with 2 fireplaces in it, awesome if it rains.

    The bad -- you can't leave your cars at the site. you have to lleave'm in a lot a couple of miles away. There is a road you can drive up (not easily, lowered cars are not going to make it) and drop your shit off, but you can't leave your vehicles at the site.

    More importantly, does anyone have a truck? That site would work if we could all load our shit in a truck and bring it up.

    you can actually fit quite a bit into a 240 if you fold down the seat and take out the rear cover.

    Oh that's not what i'm worried about, he said you got to bring your stuff up a huge trail that lowered cars can't particularly make. Bringing a bunch of 240's up a mile long trail is bad news.

    Yea we need car access

    and car parking less than 40 feet from the camp site would be great....that would ease our paranoid minds

    how far are we looking to go? i know a few of us don't have the most comfortable S13s lol. for example no A/C, no interior, no sound deadening, fixed bucket seat... lol. The cruise to banff in my S13 sucked lol. I was deaf when I got back and my legs where being cooked by the heated floorboard from the exhaust. A 1 hour drive in my S13 feels like 2. haha.

    Here's a question... I was thinking of planning another Beyond Camping Trip this year out that way... would you guys rather just be on your own or would you want to make it a group thing?

    I think we'd rather be our own group because we all interacted really well with eachother being that we all basicly have the same car. I've found with beyond cruises everyones in a bunch of tiny groups rather than socializing collectively. SR/kaconnection for the win lol.
