Reserve Your Campspot Now!

Squilchuck State Park is a 288-acre camping park covered with forests of fir and ponderosa pine. The park sits at an elevation of 4,000 feet and is a popular site for winter sports.

The park is located nine miles southwest of Wenatchee, WA, up Squilchuck Canyon toward Mission Ridge.

The park has one group camp that accommodates up to 160 people. We will have the entire campground to ourselves! There are 20 tent spaces, one restroom with flush toilets and two hot showers. Sites have no hook-ups. Maximum site length is 30 feet (limited RV spaces .. please reserve your spot early).

We are still planning activities so keep your eye on this page for additions and changes.

All campers and paid guests will receive a special lapel pin commemorating the Campout. This is a beautiful pin and we expect it to become a collector's item. Only a limited number of pins will be made. These pins will be available at the Campout only!

A Saturday potluck picnic will be open to day visitors also. Please bring a dish of your choosing to share. The WSGA will provide hamburgers, hotdogs, buns, condiments and a beverage to all campers. We expect to light the charcoal on the BBQ at 3:00PM with dinner shortly thereafter.

The park ranger has asked us to help him map the trails in the park with our GPS's. Moun10Bike will be organizing this part of the event. Bring your GPS cables so we can download track logs. Stay tuned for details.

If you are not camping, you are still welcome to join us for the picnic, caching, and other events.

We want to encourage families to attend so families camping with us will pay for a maximum of four (4) people. We will pay for the camping fees for any extra children so those you with 3 or more kids won't break the bank.
Day use visitors will ALSO be required to pay the $5.00 State Park Parking Fee, have a Washington State Park Pass or park outside the State Park. This fee is already covered for those paying for camping.

The number of RV spots is limited. To assist us in planning, please let us know if you will be attending and how many will be in your party. If you will be bringing an RV, please let us know what type and how large it is.

Reservations do not actually reserve a specific campsite. We may have to put more than one group per camp spot, especially those small One Person groups.

Additional Hints (No hints available.)
