Camping
We'll have Bear Valley Group Campground booked for the weekend. There is running water, but no showers. You can pay for camping when you register. If you've registered and decide afterward that you'd like to camp, you may do so, in theory, by editing your Ultrasignup registration. If this isn't working for you, feel free to reach out.
Restrooms
There are pit toilets at the start/finish and the adjacent Sierra Discovery Trailhead, as well as at Fordyce Aid.
