@salvino, really sorry you didn't get any help while here. I was at the Deer Ranch (headquarters), until around 11:00 am Sunday morning. From 9:30 until about 10:00 I was out trying the site, but the powder was too deep for my board skills. From 10:00 to 10:30 I was standing at the top of the hill getting interviewed by local newspaper. Jan and Jackie arrived, and we went inside the tent, so the reporter would be more comfortable. When we came out, I found my kite had blown halfway down the field, and I went to retrieve it. The whole time we were there, only one person stopped, and that person only asked for a map, and where to go. We directed this person to site#5, as that was where everyone was flying. Registration was advertised to be at 9:00 am, and we were there until at least 11:00. We do enjoy having people come from outside the area, but we also have other obligations while the festival is going on. At around 11:00 we all went to the #5 site, and spent the rest of the day there. Again, sorry you didn't have a good time, and we locals get together just about every weekend, and try to post ahead of time where we will be, should you want to make the trip again.
