The last two years we made our reservations at Timber Ridge in August or early September. But we found out that we could make our reservations as early as the day after Iceman. We went ahead and reserved our sites b/c we want to cluster 3-4 sites together with our friends. I don't understand how the reservation system works for this event, we tried getting a site next to our friends this year and they wouldn't let us, but by reserving them this early, we were able to guarantee neighboring sites.

The campground does fill up. We had a few sites next to us that people reserved just to park cars for the day. I have a feeling the campground is going to fill up earlier and earlier . . . and the cost is going higher and higher too.

The state park there is nice. We do a lot of camping there. It's not too far from the finish venue which is nice and it's close to down town.
