WEATHER
The weather will be perfect California mountain weather for October.
It has been raining the last few days, and will continue to rain throughout the weekend, clearing up on Monday for a totally sunny week!
By the time we go up on site on Wed, it will be clear skies and fun worky times!
This is excellent great news for us, because it will make the dance floor less dusty AND it will clear the air!
It will be warmish during the day, likely hitting 70. 
It will be chilly at night!
With that said...we had the same forecast for May and it was ridiculously nice.
The point is...you never know!
So please be prepared for all weather conditions! 

*some* of the campsites have fire pits! 
Feel free to purchase wood from the landowners (or bring some of your own)
HOWEVER please do not gather wood to burn

Speaking of fires...
HELLO! HUGE fires all over California happening right now~
So please maintain the highest level of fire safety!

Fires ONLY in existing fire pits.
ALL CAMPING STOVES must be elevated. 
DO NOT put your propane camping stove on the ground! 
Do you smoke?
Please bring a portable ashtray!!!  

That is all for now.
