Trail notes
- •Camping is sold per event and covers the whole event weekend. For multi-day events there are no single-night passes.
- •Each camping ticket includes one vehicle pass. Standard sites are about 15' × 25'; a setup bigger than your site needs an additional camping ticket.
- •No open campfires, but propane is allowed, so the rig's dual-burner camp stove is good to go.
- •Quiet hours are strictly enforced 2am–8am, and campground opening times vary by event, so check your camping ticket before you head out.
- •It's high desert: hot, dusty days and cool nights. Pack layers and extra water, and use the awning for shade.
