A restaurant is located approximately 15 miles to the east at El Portal or approximately 30 miles to the west in Mariposa. We recommend that you bring camping equipment and camp cooking equipment.
Temperatures are likely to be cool in the evenings.
We suggest that you provide your own tent. Please supply several large, flat stones from your Field Office area for experimental purposes, to be used for the manufacture and analysis of groundstone. Cobbles for use as hammerstones are abundant at Willow Placer campground. If you have groundstone from collections that you wish to have analyzed for pollen or other functional uses please bring them with you. Wait listed folks will be able to substitute if there are cancellations by the confirmed archaeologists.
