LMOT Campout at Rock Creek!

For friends of old time music, please join us for a fun weekend of camping and jamming in beautiful Rock Creek!

Location & Directions:  Take the Rock Creek exit 25 miles east of Missoula. Travel 21 miles (11 miles on pavement and 10 miles on dirt - often slow going!) to Miller’s Flat and the Red Bridge. Turn right over the bridge, and then take a left at the T.  Drive ¼ mile to the last cabin on the river and make a left.

Camping & cabin:  John’s Cabin is our central gathering place. The cabin is off-grid, but has solar power plus a backup generator, a well and gravity-feed water system, propane appliances, a septic system, a bathroom, an outhouse, and a shower. The cabin is not enough to support the whole group, but our cabin and property can provide access to bathrooms and water, and if needed keep us warm, fed, and dry if things get nasty.  John and the cabin can also cover basic first aid needs. 

There are plenty of flat camping spots across the property. Trailers can be brought (stay tuned for width information for crossing the bridge!), but there are no hook-ups. We have a big firepit and an outdoor barbecue. Bring your own food, supplies, and instruments :)

Activities:  When you aren’t playing music or sleeping and want to do something else, there is blue-ribbon fly fishing out the front door and hiking out the back door.  There are also biking trails not too far away.

Communication:  There is no phone reception. My neighbors have satellite connections for emergencies.  Eight miles down the road is the first cell spot.  

Questions? Connect John Parker: parkerjohn1010@gmail.com | 406-239-0902, or Lake Missoula Old Time: missoulaoldtime@gmail.com

We hope you’ll join us for a fun weekend of old time tunes, jamming, and good hangs :)
