~ THE CRYPT ~

LOCATION: On the lower level of Camp at the northeastern end of Burma Road, just before it intersects with Pritchard’s Run.

NEAREST PARKING: The shorter distance from The Crypt to parking is from the Winter Barracks parking lot behind the White House, accessing the site via Pritchard’s Run. The longer distance, but easier hike along Burma Road, is from the lower-level parking lot off Boyhaven Road a short distance from the Route 29 turn-off

DROP-OFF ACCESS: Pritchard’s Run is closed to vehicular traffic, but with the Ranger’s permission (and a key to the gate) a limited number of vehicles may drive to The Crypt campsite along Burma Road from the lower-level parking lot to drop off gear. Ambitious Scouts may borrow "camp carts" from the Ranger and carry their gear and food to the campsite.

WEEKEND RENTAL FEE: $1.00 per person

WATER SUPPLY – WARM SEASONS: Spigot in the Ranger campsite along Burma Road back in the direction of the lower-level parking lot and Banker II cabin

WATER SUPPLY – WINTER: Spigot on the south side of the White House to the right of the Ranger’s porch or a spigot on the entrance-side of Winter Barracks to the right of the doorway
