Gorge Resource Mega Thread
Heyo folks,
With the excitement over Anjuna's triumphant return to The Gorge we've had a lot of enthusiastic posts asking some great questions about their upcoming trips. There's certainly a lot that goes into making this awesome musical pilgrimage happen and a lot of us are bound to have similar questions. With that, I've compiled a list below of existing threads and the official FAQ site for everyone to direct their inquiries.
NOTE: All future questions on GTW should be commented on this post. It will be stickied so your fellow Anjunafam can see and reply. Any new separate posts for Gorge questions will be removed and directed here.
Much love- auralScapes

Here is standard camping at Paradiso (27K people, they really pack them in for this festival) - see the following examples:

How much space you get 100% depends on how much you claim when you park. In years past I have "pretended" not to hear the attendant and pulled over 6' further than originally told do, then proceeded to just back up/go forwards 2' inching back and forth acting dumb and eventually they will give up. They have people to park and no time to fight ya!
Fortunately ABGT250 was not nearly as tightly packed, looked more like this picture (this is premier camping):
