    Looks like the plan is to hike the Garden of the Gods loop, then head down the Indian Point loop and camp there. Saturday we will hike down the River to River trail for a few miles, then head back on Sunday.

    I found this video of the Indian Point loop. Pause at 1:55, that looks like a great place to set up camp!
