Will be my first Expo, I'm extremely excited!!!

Where is the general parking area? NW of the campgrouds or SE of the lodge? ...so I know which way to approach the event.

Use Google Maps to see the campgrounds. Search for "Mormon Lake Lodge, Mormon Lake Road West Side, Mormon Lake, AZ"
The main road into the campgrounds leads to the day pass parking.

A map of the ExPo grounds is downloadable as a PDF file from this link

Here's the close-up view of where to park to register when you arrive.

So I am staying in Sedona tonight, is there a easy way to get from sedona to morman lake? With out going in to flagstaff?

 

[Flagster]

You can head north on 89a out of sedona and then turn onto lake mary road (out to mormon lake) without heading into flagstaff...
You could also head north on i17 and then take the stoneman lake road exit and head over to lake mary road that way

Nice After digging in to it some more I think we will take Schnebly Hill Road out to I17. Up to mounds park then take mormon lake road to FR240 then in. Any one see any problem with that route for a stock tacoma?

 

[Ramjet]

No worries, Mate.

 

[Flagster]

no...should be fine

I have some great memories of backyard camping as a kid. Had to keep our skills sharp ya know.

Night one at the expo and keeping it a bit mellow. Long drives today so early to bed. I did cruise the show briefly and bought a Trasharoo and some QuickFists. A good Friday all in all.
