We don't know anyone that will be there. I've been to Oceano Dunes before - it's huge and there aren't any specific campsites. How will we find this group?

from Ben the organizer

We'll be rolling out of the Bay Area early Saturday AM, so most likely arriving early afternoon. Chances are we'll head to where ever @Camo Taco is set up. I'll post the coordinates in the original post once we confirm the location, but for folks arriving earlier, you may wish to head to the location that @Camo Taco described.

I plan to look between posts 5 and 6, bathrooms F and G, that’s near the border of the closed area so there wouldn’t be any traffic from ohvs. If I get there and it’s wide open, I’ll confirm on here as well.
 
@dudenov_-5384 The coordinates will be posted in the original post on Saturday afternoon. I also expect that @Camo Taco will likely post coords upon his arrival on Friday.
 
Hey Ben, Unfortunately Robin and will not be able to make it this year. We are moving into a new home. Also I have cancel my camping reservation so that someone else can get it. Bob & Robin
 
Sorry everyone Jigs Rig will not be attending. I canceled my res so maybe someone can grab the spot on the website…. Have a great time everyone… Sean
 
Hi Ben, I have to make the very unfortunate decision to cancel my reservation due to scheduling conflicts with work and school.
Very sorry to miss out on all the fun! Will catch you guys on a future trip! Have fun everyone!
 
@davidtz Awesome! I'm looking forward to meeting a lot of new folks at this one. Will your friends be traveling with you? Just wanted to make sure as last I checked the camping permits were totally sold out.
 
Just realized I hadn't responded on here yet - Kids (8, 11, 13), Chris, dogs, Xterra, dirt bikes, firewood, and I will be there, heading down from the East Bay late Saturday morning. Looking forward to it!
 
@luxylux Can't wait to see the whole crew! Small note, we've gotta burn all wood in an enclosed container like a Solo. Just throwing this out there, as Chris' typical wood haul may be a bit much given the fire regs ;)
 
Oooohh, good to know! He had planned to bring less this time, but I'll make sure he knows. Do you/anyone else have such a container...? I've just realized that I had a small one somewhere but don't have a clue what's happened to it...

Are the regulations different for the camping area? At least on the day use side this is not the case. Just dig a hole in the sand and start your fire.
