Site Information
Event Location
Directions
Take your best route to I-80 in Wyoming. Take exit #335 (Buford) and turn to the North.
Follow the road to the right at the mailboxes and continue on the dirt road for 4.4
miles. The road can be very rough with steep hills, deep washboards and ruts. Please
drive slowly and carefully. There will be an SCA sign at the turnoff. Turn into the
campground on the left. Parking is on a meadow and somewhat limited, so please be
polite and careful when parking.
Site Environment
The average daytime temperature of this area in July is in the 80-90s, and a brief
afternoon rain shower is common. Please keep yourself hydrated and sunscreened.
As this is a wilderness area, please be aware of the local wildlife and plant life.
We are in the mountains, and the site is VERY dry. Please think ahead in regards
to personal needs. There is no cutting of trees/branches/shrubs, but grass and
scrub can be cleared to flatten out tent space. If you dig a hole, fill it back in.
Elevation
This is a mountain site, elevation 8000 ft. Unless you live above 5000 ft, you will
notice the effect of thinner air, regardless of your fitness level. You will fatigue
more quickly and need more frequent hydration. Please take this into account and
stay safe and healthy.
Fire Restrictions
The event policy on fires will be determined close to the time of the event and will
adhere to site regulations and current state fire restrictions. Fire restrictions
will be clearly posted in the Town Center, and may be subject to change during the
event. Please check the posted fire policy each time you consider a fire. Remember
to bring a fire extinguisher, as it may be required in the vicinity of any fire.
Pets on Site
Dogs need to be on leash unless involved with approved coursing activities. Owners
must clean up after their critters. All poop goes in the trash. Loose dogs will be
impounded and their owners may be removed from site at the autocrat's discretion.
Any injuries caused by loose dogs will be the sole responsibility of the dog's owner
and under the jurisdiction of modern law.
Water
This site has no potable water, but the nearby Buford Trading Post has potable water
available. Water by the glass will be available in the town center area. Each person
must bring their own personal use water for drinking, washing, and cooking. Due to
elevation and time of year, it is recommended that each person bring two gallons of
water per day for personal use.
