Festivirgin here trying to figure out Tarp etiquette.
Do you leave a little path space between tarps for folks to walk through? Do people mark their tarps with flags etc so they can find later. Size/height restrictions on said flags? So many quesstions for us virgins, so many great festiveterans to help us! I CAN"T WAIT TO GET THERE!

Main thing..take only the space you need for your folks. Tarps cover the entire ground after the run..no grass showing. Passage to and from is hospitable and allowed. Good festivarians are aware of those around them and their possesions. (not to step on stuff, not getting in the way of their view, etc. Most all are very laid back and do to the closeness, you get to meet alot of great folks. Hope that helps.

Being a smart arse of course

Generaly speaking we do the tarp run ....First No No ...is Stakes !
think of hitting your toe/foot on a stake ...one word comes to mind starting with an F
Tarps are place butt to butt
there are walk ways on the edges
Open Tarps are Open to all ...just make friends ..

Ron's on the nose on the stakes. You might hit an irrigation pipe. Chairs hold them down. It's tradition and the closeness helps making and meeting new folks and friendships that can last for a lifetime.

I'm with you on the stakes Jailhouse. Just did not know about any kind of ID'ing flags. We will be fine just laying down the tarp and enjoying the whole expierence. I've seen these back-pack chairs around, are they wworth carting on the gondola from Mtn. Village?
