Dry lake bed. Lots of room and easy to park with ability to put a lot of space between you and others.

Pros: free, close to the park.

Cons: people are clearly living here. Drug deals going down at night with people sitting on the edges with high beams on. Peoplenliving here running generators from 8 pm until they run out of gas at 3 am. 230 am donuts in a pickup followed by screaming for his dogs he let out of his trailer.

We stayed on the south side of the park first and that was much better.
