Whose idea was it to put two Vancouvers so close to each other, honestly? I think it was George's idea (Vancouver)

Homeless people that squat in beatup RVs. Tent cities don't have Coleman stoves and REI tents. You might be surprised, lol I prefer to think that the way I have mine setup that it is a little better than a beat up homeless guy's RV.

I'd rather actually camp than just live like a homeless person for a few days. Camping is classy, ^that is white trash. Are you talking about the homeless people with beat up RVs or the homeless people that live in tent cities?

I was at the turnstyle when a guy tried to sprint thru. I can guarentee you can outrun any of those security guards. The problem lies when you sprint thru and they yell for their buddies. You stick out like a sore thumb and they tackle you. If they get you it will hurt, i promise. A minimum wage human pylon's biggest thrill is to get to take out a runner.
You have a better chance finding a guard off to the side and bribing him. The problem with this year is they will probably kick you out withou8t a bracelet.

I was talking with a gal at the shuttle stop and this discussion came up she said, 'Do you think my boobs are really this big?" She had filled heat locked bags with vodka and stuffed them in her shirt. The security guards won't go that far in their pat downs, since they are not the TSA.

I knew a girl who wore one of those preggo belly things, and filled it with all of her 'sekrit stuffs'. No questions asked. Can you mess up your fake baby if you drink and do drugs?

As far as I am concerned, RV or trailer is the only way to camp. You have your own shower, your own bed, and your own kitchen.

I know this is a ltiile late, but I wanted to address the Canada/US purchases thing. Things usually cost less down here because we have a different tax structure. Parts are included, but not nearly as much as yours. You would be better off buying supplies in Seattle of Spokane. Don't wait until Moses Lake, because you get into the small town pricing issues.
Whoever said don't bring anything you wouldn't be crushed if it was stolen is right on. No one wants their stuff touched, but there are dirt bags everwhere. If you see someone in a tent that doesn't belong, report them and get them out of there, but be prepared to lose some things.
The weird thing is I leave things out at the concert on the hill and it never gets touched. sometimes it is a few hours before i get back, but no on e knows who around my stuff might be with me. At the campground though too many times people are pretty isolated so it is easier for them to break into things.

They usually have a trailer with a few real bathrooms in them. They have running water and all. The problem is you have to go in there right after they are cleaned. It is nice to sit down on porcelain.

Which makes me think: we need to consider the high visibility of something like this. If we establish the hugest fucking party site in the whole campground, um, we might get raided. I wouldn't woory about gettingt raided. it is more likely you would get joined by another 500 ppl. Late at night everyone looks for the biggest party. When that is established it just grows and grows. Eventually the Sasquatch security will show up and break it up, but i have never seen them raid a party. You have to give them serious reason to come after you.

Ellensburg at the fruit stand. You will not miss that place. You beat me to it. That is a great place to stop even if most of the fruit is not local that time of the year. Who is planning on going early Thursday? I want to leave Seattle around noon if possible.

Some people said 15-20 minutes. Some said 20-40 minutes. Part of the discrepancy may be how far into GC are you coming from. It may be 15-20 minutes from the edge of the campground. It may take an additional 15-20 minutes to get to yur campsite. Keep in mind the campground is huge!!

By rule, yes, but you never know based on who you deal with. They all deal with the rules differently.

So I could drive a semi truck onto camping grounds this year and not pay a penny extra on top of my ticket. Is that what is my understanding? That si correct, if you stay in General Camping. A lot of motor home and large truck/trailer combos are as big as a semi. They have never charged more for an RV than for a tent, since you are only buying dirt anyway. You don't get any sort of hookups so it doesn't really cost the campground more for a larger vehicle.

I have run everything from a noisy generator, an really quiet Honda generator to last year I installed an inverter with additional batteries. Now I can have silent power at night and for breakfast. It works really well. Just if you need a generator, get a Honda Eu1000 or 2000. They are nice and quiet.

Just park and take what you need. It all works out.

You do get more than that, but with everything I still don't think it is worth it.
