CAR CAMPING PASSES:
To drive your vehicle to your campsite, rather than parking it in the field and then setting up camp elsewhere, you must purchase a car camping pass for $60. This pass is required if you intend to move your vehicle for any reason once inside the event. One car camping pass is also included with cabin rental.

RVs, Large Vehicles, Trailers and Spaceships…
All of these (and anything else with wheels that can fit an upright table and chairs inside, at our discretion) must purchase a 100$ Large Vehicle Pass before the event. We have a limited capacity due to lots of trees and art installations getting in the way.

All paths eventually lead to Route 120…

Route 120 makes a left turn in Oakdale, then right at Yosemite Junction, and bear right to stay on the 120, then left when it leaves 49, and turns left up Priest Grade. Continue on 120 through Groveland. Ten (10) miles after Buck Meadows, turn left on Evergreen Road. Follow Evergreen Road seven (7) miles to Camp Mather.
