Meeting on the afternoon/evening of the start day of a Trip at a location in the direction of the Trip’s destination allows the group to ‘get out of town’ and travel two to three hours towards that destination.
From the Meeting Point the group can travel to the overnight campsite, selected to allow an arrival time of 7.00 p.m. - 9.00 p.m. This procedure will allow participants to spend more time at the destination.
In selecting the Meeting Points listed consideration was given to a location that:
- is away from congestion/peak hour traffic;
- has sufficient parking;
- allows easy/safe access to the major route of travel.
