Come camp and chill with us in Idyllwild / Lake Perris!! We’ll start the morning with a scenic drive up to Mt. San Jacinto where we will hit a sweet hike of 7 miles length (probs 4 hours long) — then we’ll drive over to our campsite to cook a beautiful Paris-themed meal, and stare at the stars as we drift to sleep. The next morning we’ll wake up early, hit the road back to LA, and have a quick dip in Lake Perris on our way home! This is a great trip for your first time camping or if you just want a relaxed break from the crazy of school and LA! Come hang wiv us!!
