Bringing back an old favorite started by the legendary Karmann Bob. Two nights of VW camping in the pristine Mt Baker wilderness at the Excelcior group camp, located next to the Nooksack river off scenic Mt Baker Hwy.

June 8th-10th

This is a mellow family friendly gathering for all VW owners to share food, stories and to play fun camping games. The camp is located near several hiking trails and Noocksack falls, which we will take an afternoon cruise to on Saturday.

There are no amenities at this camp ground so be sure to bring plenty of food, wood and water (toilets provided). Saturday, we will all join for a pot-luck dinner under the shelter.

Only $20 for the weekend so get that hulk of a VW running, grab the family and come join us for a weekend of FUN!

Excelsior Group Camp B, off Mt Baker Hwy Whatcom County Washington. Exit 255 off I-5 at Sunset Dr/Mt Baker Highway/WA 542. Drive east 47 miles to the group camp exit located on the right, about 7 miles past the town of Glacier, WA.

Me too! It's been several years since the last one and it was just picking up steam. Hoping to keep the momentum going.

Looks like rain Friday night to Saturday morning but then gets better. I'm bringing an Eazy-Up and a large tarp to keep us dry. Getting excited!

Despite the mix bag of weather, it was a decent turnout and everyone had a great time. There were games, rock hounding, exploring the river, a trip to the raging Nooksack falls. pot-luck and lots of bs'ing. Afterwards, we stopped by the North Fork Brewery before heading home. Can't wait until next year!

That was way fun! Thanks to everyone that made the boy feel welcome. He got a camp knife AND got to light the fire?! Perfect trip for a 10 year old. Looking forward to catching up with you all at vintage meet.
