2014 Northern California Fox Hunt; Upper Lake, CA Oct 17-19 2014

The Northern California Human Fox Hunt this year at beautiful Saratoga Springs, in Upper Lake, California, will provide you with an unforgettable experience that combines animal roleplay, chase and capture scenarios, BDSM play parties, and high-fetish for a weekend of fun, frolic and fantasy!

The Fox Hunt is a live-action role-playing game of wit and wile, prowess and pursuit, where a human fox (or other prey) attempts to outwit teams of human hunting dogs, ponies, hunters, handlers, and trainers in an outdoor setting. Spectators can follow closely behind to watch as the fox is routed out by the pups and chased down and cornered. The hunt frequently takes on a kinky bent where the team that captures the fox negotiates a BDSM scene symbolizing the ritualized dismemberment in the spirit of fox hunting.

The Fox Hunt celebrates diversity! ALL animal role players and trainers/owners/wranglers/friends are welcome to play or watch in this gorgeous, pristine outdoor setting. No experience is necessary. No partners are necessary – there are usually enough additional wranglers and animals to go around for everyone.

This clothing-optional venue provides a safe, sane, and consensual environment for you to romp/frolic/gallop about as you please. There is plenty of outdoor space for lunge line running, cart pulling, a huge (2400 sq ft) indoor BDSM play space, and 266 forested acres for the hunts. And remember hunters and campers, there are absolutely no clothing restrictions whatsoever. This means that you can have dinner in your finest latex cat costume, or have breakfast in your dog bowl. A fully-staffed kitchen is onsite for all of your dining needs.

The Early Bird special for Basic Registration is $189 per person. This is an ALL-INCLUSIVE package price (food, beverages, etc.) and includes camping and full use of all of the facilities (in addition to a free commemorative run-pin!). If you wish to reserve bed space, there are options available with extra costs attached. Single beds in the bunkhouse are available for the weekend at $45 extra.
