Arrival Process & Check-In
All participants will enter the venue via Crystal Mountain Blvd. Signs will guide you to gear drop and parking areas. Be sure to stop at Lot H and visit the orange Ragnar tent for instructions on where to go.
Parking is within walking distance of the village and camping area. Upon arriving at Lot H you will need to pay the parking fee ($20 if arriving on Thursday night and $10 if arriving on Friday). The parking fee will be credit card only. The fee is a one-time fee. Once you pay, you can come and go as you please! If you are arriving after hours, please proceed directly to the parking area and come to the HQ tent in the morning to pay for parking and receive a parking pass.  We will be parking vehicles in the lots as follows: Lot C, Lot D, Lot E, Lot H, Lot F. Please follow volunteer instructions and signage to the open parking lot. There is no participant parking outside of reserved RV spots in Lot B. 
Important Reminder: Participant entry is not permitted before 3:00 PM on Thursday unless you have an RV reservation through Crystal Mountain Resort. If you arrive early, please head to Lot H and wait there until the venue officially opens.
When you arrive at the venue, one person from the team will check the team in at HQ.
DEPARTURE PROCESS
After an epic weekend of dirt, sweat, and glory, it’s time to head home like the trail legends you are. For a smooth exit, follow these steps:
Clean Up Your Campsite
Leave no trace (except good memories). Use the trash and recycling bags from check-in and toss waste in the right bins—help us help Mother Nature and our clean-up crew.
Pack Up & Head to Gear Drop
Bring all your gear to the Gear Drop before grabbing your car. If you’re lucky enough to be parked nearby, feel free to skip the drop and go straight to your vehicle.
Load Up at Gear Drop
Once you’ve got your car, swing back to Gear Drop and load up. But don’t roll in early—no parking, no lingering, no camping out in the driver’s seat. Think airport drop-off... but with more mud.
