Individual PROPANE firepits are OK (Campfire in a Can, etc). Please have your shovel and fire extinguisher handy - it's California in the Fall.
NO WOOD FIRES ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME

>There is a non-refundable $60 RSVP fee for each vehicle for the weekend. You must agree to our Terms of Service, be a Registered Member, and sign a Hold Harmless (provided at check in) to be fully RSVP’d.
Based on this statement in the first post,, I sort of assume they're updating the process this year to avoid the usual problems. (And maybe forgot to update some of the boilerplate from previous years).
Confirmation would be good, though.
REMINDER!

I can bring a trailer right? (like 20 feet I think) Thinking about bringing friends with a nice glamping setup rather then sleeping in my Jeep?
From the first post in this thread:
This is not an RV event. RV's, 5th wheels, pavement-oriented travel trailers, and Class A or C motorhomes are not allowed. Overland, offroad type small trailers ARE allowed.
