Additional Guidelines also included in each Registration Packet:
Camping Along the Rubicon Trail
1. Never camp right on top of your neighbor. Allow some room. Be polite in choosing your tent or trailer parking spot.
2. Do not go to the bathroom just any old where. Bring along a pack-it-out set up. Be courteous of your neighbor. With all the people using the trail, we can't allow toilet paper white flowers to become a natural part of our landscape. Pack out your trash too.
3. Do not get off the trail or make a new trail to set up camp. Camp where folks are supposed to camp.
4. Report unruly campers to law enforcement if, after you've spoken with them, they won't settle down.
5. Always Tread Lightly! Set the example for the kids watching you.
6. After packing up your camp, do one more walk around and pick up any trash -- even that of others less thoughtful. Be sure to get the cigarette butts also. They do not decompose immediately.
7. Maintain legal and common sense distances from water sources such as lakes and creeks.
8. Turn off noisy devices and loud music after 10:00 p.m. -- party softly after that. ![Smile :)](https://board.marlincrawler.com/Smileys/marlin/smiley.gif)
9. Camp Fire Permits: are required! Please get one at any USFS or CDF office. Obey fire restrictions.
10. Camp at least 100 feet from water sources such as creeks, lakes and ponds.
