Question

Weather concerns

Answer

This is Colorado so there really is no way of guessing what the weather will do. Be prepared for it all: rain gear (umbrella/rain coat), light jacket, sunscreen and/or bug spray. You will be able to store any extra gear in the house if you do not want to carry it around all night.

Question

Are children allowed?

Answer

All children invited are welcome, though it is the responsibility of the parents/guardians to make sure they do not get lost in the woods or walk off a cliff.
