We will review all the lessons learned from the days before. There will be a few scenes placed outside the ranch house. The  investigators will have to put together a narrative on what happened in that spot based on what they learned. This will take about 30-45 minutes.

Time: 3:30 - 5:00pm

Activity location: The first 30 minutes of the camp will take place at the Ranch House on park. Please park in the main parking lot and we will meet at the group ramada and then walk to the Ranch house together.

The hike will take place at the Guindani loop trail head which is located at the very end of the paved road. We will convoy over to the parking area and start our scavenger hunt shortly after that.
FEE: Park entrance fee of $7.
