I'm getting so excited about Sierra Fest that I've already started a packing list. But since I haven't wheeled the Rubicon before or camped at Hidden Valley, I have some questions. I don't want to overpack, but I also don't want to get there and the say, "dang, I should have brought a . . . " whatever. So I'm going to risk scorn and ridicule and just ask. Maybe other first timers will have questions that I haven't thought of and, if so, I hope they'll post their questions here too and maybe we'll all benefit from getting some answers.
Do I need to bring wag bags? A shovel? Both? Neither? (If I'm going to ask embarrassing questions, I might as well get that one out of the way right off the bat.) Are there vault toilets or the like at Buck Island? (I assume there are facilities at Rubicon Springs.)
Any fishing along the way? Packing fishing gear is easy, but I don't want to buy a fishing license if I'm not going to have a chance to use it. Any swimming spots? Would packing swim fins, a mask, and snorkel be a waste of cargo space?
Approximately what time can we expect to roll into South Lake Tahoe on Wednesday? This has nothing to do with packing, but I've got a work-related Zoom meeting at 4 o'clock Wednesday and I'm wondering about my chances of being checked into a motel in time to participate in that.
Can someone please post coordinates for the Hidden Valley campground? Or a link? I'm having trouble finding it on line.
These are all the questions I have at the moment. Thanks for any answers you guys can provide.
