Driving In
- From Hwy 247 (Old Woman Springs Rd), turn north onto Boone Road.
- Stay on Boone for about 2 miles. At the fork where you'll see The Forty, bear right onto Pistachio Rd and head straight east ½ mile.
- Look for the STO Fest sign, then turn left and roll ¼ mile north to the Lasertown entrance.
- Heads up: your maps app will likely send you up Daransette Road. Skip it — take Boone Road and follow the map.
- Fuel, groceries, and water are easiest in Yucca Valley or Lucerne Valley.
- Cell service is spotty out here. Download your directions before the last stretch of highway.
At the Gate
- Pull up slowly and tell them the names of everyone in the vehicle. They'll need the names you registered with.
- A crew member will check you in and guide you to your camping area.
- Keep it slow and dusty-free — 5 mph inside the gates.
