Some communal equipment will be available (barring circumstances beyond our control), such as a 20’x30’ heated play tent, some play furniture & equipment, a communal shower, & a communal kitchen with some cooking equipment (but not dishes, glasses, or flatware). If you use communal equipment, please leave it clean & ready for use by the next person. If you have any questions, please ask! For those purchasing “meal plan” tickets, please be aware that you need to volunteer to assist in setting up &/or cleaning up for at least one meal.

KNKE does carry extra rope, stakes and tarps and a primitive tool kit in case someone has a catastrophic equipment failure. If you do not have equipment, many prior attendees have extra equipment for loan. Contact your fellow campers or [email protected].

Water/Trash/Toilets

• As of 22 December 2017, there is potable water at the June site this year.
• There will be a communal shower provided if there is sufficient water available and shower is functional. There will be scheduled times for showers and showers will be available on an ad hoc basis if you can convince our shower meister.
• Wash food and personal items away from drinking water supplies.
• Do not throw food or trash on ground, or leave food or trash out overnight. This can attract bears.
• When not actually using or eating food, lock all food in vehicles (or in a provided bear vault if you can’t put it in vehicle).
• Before going to sleep, throw all garbage and litter in bear-proof dumpster provided for this purpose.
• There are vault toilets on site; use toilets properly. Keep toilet lids closed always if not immediately in use to keep minimize smell. Do not throw garbage, litter, feminine hygiene products, or other foreign substances in toilets – this causes problems. There are garbage bags in each toilet for these items.
• Hand cleaning facilities will be made available outside the toilets.

Campfires and Fire Restrictions

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KEEPING FIRES UNDER CONTROL!

Fires are only allowed in fire rings, stoves, grills, or fireplaces provided or brought for that purpose - no “open ground fires.”
Each fire that is not completely extinguished MUST always be closely attended by at least one conscious & alert individual, and there must be a minimum of 3 gallons of water near the fire in case of emergency.
Water for fire control is available from tap near restrooms.

The campsite may not have adequate firewood for our needs - we will attempt to bring some firewood, but you should plan to bring some with you if you want fire (be sure there is no insect infestation). We hope to have a central fire going for communal gatherings etc. HOWEVER, if you choose to have a campfire in your campsite, you must have the above conditions covered.

Assistance in providing, gathering, &/or preparing firewood wood is appreciated! PLEASE DO NOT cut or damage live trees for any reason. We do not know if there will be wood at the site that can be used (or how much), so we encourage you to bring disease-free/insect-free firewood for your fires &/or to contribute to the central fire.

A permit is NOT required to cut or gather dead wood to burn in fires at this campsite, but if any gathered wood if taken home, permits are required & must be obtained in advance. If you purchase or bring firewood & plan to take unused wood back with you, we recommend you keep your receipt or have other proof (such as a photo showing that the wood was not gathered from the camp area), so site managers won’t fine you for “gathering wood without a permit.” PLEASE PLAN ACCORDINGLY.

Parking

• Priority parking can be provided for those with SPECIAL NEEDS (wheelchair access, etc.) if you advise organizers in advance. Please contact [email protected] to discuss your individual situation.
• Camping in vehicles IS permitted.
• RV's & Campers are allowed, but limited to 20 on a first-come, first-serve basis, with FREE RV ticket purchase (so we know how many to expect).
• Do not damage or disturb land, vegetation, or wildlife. Try not to drive on wet or muddy areas or leave ruts.
• Use motor vehicles only for entering or leaving campgrounds. NO vehicles are allowed behind barriers.

PETS & OTHER 4-LEGGED CREATURES:

Service Animals or Pets (4-Legged Variety) are welcome - but they must be kept on a leash or rope. YOU are 100 % responsible for your pets, their actions, & making sure they don’t bother other campers or wildlife. Please make sure your animal is 100% friendly, well-behaved, & quiet at night. Please clean up pet droppings. Food for your pet is not included in Meal Plan tickets. Pets must ALWAYS be restrained on a leash, rope, etc., or site manager can ask you & your pet to leave (without refund).

NOISE, GOOD BEHAVIOR & DISCRETION:

• Please be considerate of fellow visitors.
• There is a hiking/biking trail through one side of the campsite. Please use discretion when engaging in adult activities – including frolicking in less than bar legal clothing. There are heavily wooded areas, in the center of the site and we might set a few tarps up as additional screening.
• A heated 20’x 30’ play tent, and other amenities at your disposal to encourage privacy. Please BE DISCREET with controversial displays, nudity, etc. Please do not attract unwanted attention or disturb other visitors.
• Try to keep noise at a reasonable level. If you are known to scream during play, please consider some type of gag
• Campsite regulations state that “Quiet hours are from 11pm to 6am.”
• KNKE generators will be available for wax play, Violet Wand, etc. & showers only between 9am – 9pm. There will be no generators used after 9pm (even for CPAPs, etc.) due to disturbance for other campers. If you need to use a CPAP, we recommend using a battery-operated unit, an inverter, or some other quiet power source.
• No fighting, fireworks, explosives, or fire arms are allowed.
• Bad behavior may result in offender being asked to leave with no refund!
• Please remove all personal property, food, and trash when leaving.

Bears

This is the 10th year for Colorado Kinky Camping We’ve never seen a bear at this location (or any other), but… If a bear approaches you or enters your campsite, stop what you are doing and evaluate the situation. Speak or sing in a calm, appeasing tone. Back away slowly, preferably in the direction you came. Walk, don't run, and keep your eye on the bear so you can see how it will react. If there are food or other things that might be attracting the bear, DO NOT try to take them with you. And remember that bears and mosquitoes are often attracted to lotions, perfumes, and soaps, as well as food.
If you see a bee, remember that they are more likely to chase &/or sting you if you run or swat at them.

Lost & Found

Please report any “lost” items & give any “found” items to KNKE organizers so we may try to get them back to their owners. We are not responsible for lost or stolen property.

Play Rules and Restrictions

• Absolutely no amputations or chainsaw play on humans.
• No suspending people by the neck.
• No play that will require professional medical care as part of aftercare or fixing oopsies.
• No burning down the forest.
• Consent is paramount; intentional consent violators will be required to leave camp with no refund and might be banned for any future event.

• Other than that, everyone negotiates & plays at their own risk.
• There are no dungeon monitors at camp. We expect each attendee to take personal responsibility for any actions related to consensual kink play – be aware of the risks of the play in general and then factor in the fact that we are in the woods in a tent (or not). If you desire someone to monitor a scene, contact a friend or camp staff. If you would like help in negotiating a scene, please contact a friend or camp staff. 
• There are cleaning supplies in the play space tent. Clean the equipment with barbicide after each use; it has an 8 minute kill time – equipment must remain wet for this amount of time.
