Overnight at the North Unit Group Campsite


BCA celebrated its 10th anniversary at the group campsite of North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park (and the NU is the site of other memorial outings) and it is time to return to this sweet spot. The group site at the Juniper campground is right on the Little Mo Nature Trail and features giant cottonwoods. Herds of bison regularly roam through and the birding is dandy. 

The group site is reserved for Friday night to allow for early arrivals and Saturday morning hiking opportunities as per the group preference. Since most of the NU is wilderness, hikes get us into the heart of a landscape we all love. Depending on the Little Missouri River depth, we will cross the river and explore off-trail. Proximity to the Amphitheatre will also allow for participants to take in ranger-led evening talks before the BCA campfire time.

Though we will camp at the group site, individuals are responsible their own camping gear and meals. Bring plenty of water, adequate food for snacks and meals, clothing layers for changing weather, binocs, cameras, nature guides, sun and insect protection, sturdy boots, and whatever else makes you happy!
