I sleep in the back of my pickup w/canopy, in shade and with a fan for fresh air...very comfy even in heat.

From my experience in the very windy lower gorge, using lots of tie downs and using bungies as shock absorbers kept my scene from blowing over. Mine cannot be lowered but after the shock cording I only had my chairs blowing away, until I nailed them down.

Since I've never seen either the Shins or St Vincent and they both have a huge following here I guess I will have to go back and forth. That's my usual festival strategy anyway.

mrlahey: I would not worry about the propane tanks in the heat, they are alot more indestructable then one would think. I saw some aftermath photos from a forest fire in N. Calif. that burned up a trailer park. There was a picture of a travel trailer burned to the frame with 2 Intact propane tanks still mounted to the front!! Also being a bit of a cook myself and hoving used the large burner setup, I know you will appreciate it if you have room for it.

It is too cumbersome a project for more than a few people, but it is fun to make a bunch of small fresh pizzas...I have done it at festivals before.

I have a folding oven that sits on a camp stove....I can even do pizza on a stone in it...probably won't at Sasquatch though, unless a few people are really up for it.

So guys, as a first timer I have no idea what the actual shape of the venue is, and the site does not seem interested in postin the map. How far apart are the various stages? My usual strategy at a multi-stage festival is to just bounce around for a few minutes at each stage that conflicts, especially if I'm unfamiliar with the groups, and spend more time at the main acts I know and love. Of course I always manage to fall for an unknown group and bust up my plan, but that's life.
