So for those of us who are hopeful but wild cards at coming... is there a camping area near the KOA if we can't get a spot due to last minute arriving??

It's better to reserve a spot and then cancel 2 days prior if you can't go. The whole area gets over stuffed with Texans the entire month of July. Not kidding. If you make it you'll see.

But if you are not sure if you will be able to make it, try to avoid the key spots near the fire. We want those to be FSJ folks to reduce complaints about the noise. ;)

Hey guys, I got word that there are only 3 spots left for us and the KOA needs to release 2 of them if we do not reserve them asap. The only sites left are 43, 44 and 49. Casey asked if we can keep 49 for us but the other two will be released. If you are even thinking about going, get a spot!

Could someone please snatch up 44?!!?! I'm a world class sleep-farter and I don't want the 2am giggle fest next door waking me up to be some random people I don't know.

Ted, I don't remember the exact cost, but it seems steep for camping until you get there and remember you're in heaven. I think it's usually about $50 a night for a tent site that allows up to 4 people, but it might be a little less.

Gotcha, thanks. I'm still hoping I can attend but it will depend on a lot of things falling into place. I'll probably just be a Klingon and find someplace to sleep in the Jeep or a tent. Come hang out or maybe hit an easy trail. Money will be tight so I'll be the guy eating MREs. Image

If you're eating MREs in Ouray, it's because you want to. EVERYBODY brings way to much food and cooks it all.

Maybe I can BBQ some MREs for everyone so I don't feel like a mooch. At least I won't need the fridge-freezer for em. Haha

Alert,

47D is up for grabs. I have heard that is the main celebration area. Someone should get in touch with that guy. He will not be there as he is in the military.

47a is a great spot! If you have to cancel let us know, someone will want it.

47A is awesome if you don't have monsoonal flooding. ;)

Isn't John Collins one of the guys with 999 Offroad?
