RGM May 2026 outing!!
We will be staying the weekend of May 15th-17th (Friday-Sunday) at Willow Creek Campground!
Cabins are still available. RV sites with full hookups and tent dry camping is also available. RV sites are available to tent and car campers, so you can use the power (for a heater) and water. And best of all, campfires are allowed!
Please call Willow Creek Campground ahead to make your reservations. You are responsible for paying your own lodging or campsite fees.
If you prefer to just come up for the day, either Saturday or Sunday, you can park in the campground and enjoy the group mining activities free of charge.
Their contact info is: Willow Creek Campground, 17548 ca-49, Camptonville, ca 95922 (530) 288-0646
Willow Creek flows right through the campground and carries great gold! It is pans only in the campground area. However, we will have exclusive access to their private claim just upstream of the campground, which is within walking distance. We can also drive to other close access points for the claim. Once on the claim, we can use better and bigger equipment.
We will be putting on a members' appreciation BBQ, free to all members. Donations (to go towards future BBQs) will be accepted. Please provide side dishes like a potluck. We will provide chicken.
We hope to see you there!
