Special Notice updated 10/6: We learned the outcome of an issue yesterday and we need to pass the information on to you. The BlueWater Desert Challenge race course is all on Indian Land, CRIT, the Colorado River Indian Tribes land. The Main Parking Area is on CRIT land. The CRIT Fish & Game division of the tribe will be charging an OVERNIGHT CAMPING fee of $15 per day/night/24 hour period, or $40 for a gold pass of 3 days or longer. Also, they will be charging a $25 OHV/ORV (off highway vehicle/off road vehicle) tag, which includes atv's, utv's and motorcycles. You cannot purchase the CAMPING TAG in advance. There will be two (2) gates getting into the main parking area where you will have to stop and purchase your camping pass, they accept cash or check, no credit cards. This fee applies to only vehicles you are going to sleep in (not race trailers, race vehicles.) Please know that Best In The Desert did everything we could to get this fee waived for Best In The Desert events. We did write a special letter to the council and ask for a revision to the bylaws to waive the fee but we were turned down. We are very sorry to have to request one more fee from you but this is now out of our control, there is nothing more we can do. This is not BlueWater Resort & Casino land, this is not the City of Parker land/LaPaz county land requesting this fee. Again, there is no use calling our office, there is nothing more we can do. Don't pay the OHV/ORV fee in advance, wait for them to find you.
Time revision: just to clarify, Arizona is on the same Time Zone as Las Vegas, California (PST Zone) is on. I made a mistake re: MST, so again, Parker will be the same time as Pacific Standard Time.
Camping Notice: We have arranged for River Septics of Parker, to pump out your black/gray water at the Main Parking Area. You will need to call them for service and you need to explain your position in detail. They will wait for a big group and come pump several camps at one time. Call (928) 667-0021 to request service. Also, if you didn't call them but you see them drive by you can flag them down and they will stop for you.
The Draw Order for Start Position is posted, it is by class, not start order. Click here to view Draw Order
