Cool!

Thanks Remi. Any word on the size of area or parking restrictions?

Also, should folks cancel their existing reservation or hold off until you guys post up? I just looked on the recreation.gov site. There is a $10 cancellation fee.

Thanks again

I can't give any details as we don't have any details yet. I know there is a cancelation fee so noone cancel anything till we sort our stuff out. Also I did post for folks to hold up ;)
 
ok in the loop where people have made reservations there are only 5 spots and one double spot available so why not fill it up use the double spot for BBQ and raffle and late takers can reserve spots in the other part of that loop?

PS this info is accurate as of 645am
spots available in current loop
87
92/93 (double spot)
98
99
100
101

The area directly above is completly open other than spot 76/77 the double

So you saying that the "loop" that was mentioned wont be used now?

I think that is what he is saying which is why my last post shows it is still possible to use what some of us have already reserved and fit everyone else there too.

theres been enough room in that area in past years so why not this one?

Remi, what I took from your earlier posts was that some one was gona try and get a are to our selves this year and that was posted weeks ago, I and others asked for updates since then and got nada so I figured it wasnt happening. some one elses suggestion was if we dont hear anything to just make reservations in the are of last year........so thats what I did. Could I have waited a couple more weeks for information and reservations.....possibly BUT would there still be spots open where we could camp as a group? who knows. I try very hard to not be a last minute decision maker and if I haddent started thinking of this 4 weeks ago (when I started bugging the wife and my boss) I more than likely would not be going.

Im not bashing or trying to be difficult just voicing my opinon
 
I agree, one month out and nada is a little close for my lifes planing. Even at a month I have to confirm that I will make it due to jeep and personal other plans. But I am thinking its poss.

As for the camp ground. Its Cinco de mayo weekend! You think the latino crowd doesnt like to camp as a family then your in for some surprise I am thinking when it comes to availibility its going to be hard to find soon, or so IMO.

So I booked what I was reading was in the "In" location.

In any case if its not with the group thats cool. I not huge on having to be in the hype, but close to it would be nice still.

94 dzraces
95 grimmjeeper
96 kraker

Um yeah I am sometimes a outsider. But either early in this thread or the other one I posted that I had booked 89 & 91 over a week ago.

If anyone wants to buy some land from me thats cool. I got two spots thinking if I dont use it all I can recop some of the 122$ and rent out some of the excess.. 15$ per night if interested. thats less then half. Just tring to be fair...

I will only have me and maybe my 14yo daughter (doubtful) and maybe a buddy and his TJ. It looks to be a pretty good sized two side by side sites. I do drink, and do snore. And dont liek lots of smoking near me in camp. so if you can live with that your welcome.
