Event Location
Optimally, events for The Green River Boys should take place in a wilderness setting versus in someone’s backyard. Private land is preferred (due to potential legalities around fire starting, use of muzzleloaders, etc.) but public parks will work, provided there is a suitable location away from most of the park traffic, allowing there to be more of a “wilderness” feel to the location. The location should not be too remote however, as having a location more than 1/4-1/2 mile from parking may be prohibitive or cause hardships to entry. Access for disabilities should also be taken into consideration, based on the make-up of the party.
The use of private land also the party the ability to create a more permanent shelter on the property, which creates a sense of belonging and camaraderie around the building of the shelter and the use of it as a semi-permanent camp.
