“The man who goes afoot, prepared to camp anywhere and in any weather, is the most independent fellow on earth.”

-Horace Kephart

We recommend packing lightly, as Detach is hike-in, hike-out and between .5 - .75 miles from the parking lot to your accommodation. Drinking water is provided from hand-pump wells, so there is no need to pack in water.
