Accommodations
There are a number of ways to spend your hours sleeping in the
Gorge. One important thing to remember is that almost anywhere you
sleep at night in the area you are bound to hear trains since they
run along both sides of the Columbia River throughout the region.
Many rally attendees solve the train issue simply by using a pair of
earplugs, ingesting a Tylenol PM or simply saying – “I love trains –
it’s no big deal.” “It’s a great location and the
facility is clean and well kept.”
Richard S. – Grass Valley, CA Onsite Camping
Camping is available free of charge to all participants on the
fairgrounds beginning Wednesday. The west side of the camping area features
electrical outlets so if you’d like to recharge your camera battery or
laptop, run a sleep apnea machine or otherwise, pack an extension cord
and you’ll be all set. To insure you get a good spot arrive early.
