Just a heads up, I believe the rendezvous location is outside of the normal camping area and our permit for our group is not good until noon on Thursday the 9th so you may want to confirm the regulations for where you are.

THIS

It is in fact one of the BLM’s “permit only” group areas.
 
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
