Hi Patty,

I see you got an answer already from Tom which are very accurate. However let
me expand on them a bit

As Tom Said, RV's are in the car camping area (unless you are "alter abeled"
which we can talk about if it applies to you). The car camping area itself is a
large rectangular meadow. It is about 4 to 5 time longer than it is wide (the
mainstage, food court, and vendors are accessed from one corner of this large
rectangle. From the farthest end of this meadow to the where the action is
takes about 15 minutes walking at a normal pace (not including stops along the
way to listen in on some fine jamming)

The car meadow is quite level except for one spot where it sinks down into a
hollow. It is divided into rough zones. There's Family Camp, Crew camp (off to
one side in the sunken hollow section which happens to be wooded), open camping,
and quiet camp (in that order). The farther you go from the event area the less
dense the camping.

This is open field camping. No defined spaces, no picnic tables, no fire pits.
If you're real close to the event area, expect to get to know your neighbors.
If you go way out to the quiet camp area at the far end you will have plenty of
elbo room. BTW they do have a shuttle (golf cart) that goes back and forth for
folks that need a ride to/from the event area.

In terms of shade, as Tom said it's hard to find, but not impossible to come by.
The rectangular area I described runs more or less north to south the long side
parallels Hwy 101 (but not right next to it). The sun comes up on the other
side of 101 (which of course is to the east). The west edge of the meadow is up
against a wooded area. If you pull your camper up to the western edge of the
rectangle (farthest away form 101) you will get afternoon shade. There are
also some trees sparsely scattered around the meadow that you can cozy up to and
there is also more ample shade at the farthest end in the quiet camp area.

Tom was also correct that propane BBQ is OK as long as it's not sitting directly
on the ground. No other form of fire is permitted. Generator use in an RV is
OK up to about 10:00 pm (charge those batteries). Technically though they are
not allowed in quiet camp at all but unless you have an exceptionally loud one,
it's not been a problem to fire it up mid day to juice up your batteries.

In all the festival years, they have never run out of camping space. But, later
arrivals will be a bit farther down the meadow along with the people who prefer
being a bit further away (eg. they want to sleep at night or just prefer a bit
more room). You are allowed to stay overnight on Sunday night, but need to
vacate by noon on Monday.

There is plenty of water but no hookups. There are water tanks scattered around
with various forms of spigots and drinking fountains but most of the tanks are
in the sun so expect warm/hot water. There is no sewage dump for RV's


Hope that helps Patty.

Dan
