AO LOCATION: The address of the AO, 15742 N. Bloomfield Road, Nevada City, will take you to the camp/offices of the Diamond Arrow facility which has over 300 acres of property.

The event AO is NOT located at the offices area, but it is in the wooded area 1/4 mile East of it. Operators arriving for the 2014 RECON Challenge will need to drive past the Diamond Arrow camp/offices and continue East on N. Bloomfield Road for another 1/4 mile. The AO entrance will be the second dirt road off of N. Bloomfield, an will be marked with an event sign.

PARKING: Please pull down into the dirt lot and park. There is space for approximately twenty cars so be courteous and make the best use of the area for fellow operators. Thank You.

WEATHER: The temperatures are expected to be: High of 71 and Low of 50. Partly Cloudy, with 3% chance of rain, and only Crescent of Moon rising at 2000 hours.

See you on the field!

Comment by John Jensen on October 16, 2014 at 10:21pm: One more day....who else would agree that tomorrow will probably be one of the slowest days this entire week. Just got my OpCom packet from Kalish, definitely looks to be a pretty awesome event.

Comment by Chris Kalish on October 15, 2014 at 11:44pm: Blazed: No intermission planned, game will run continuously. If you can make your way to camp and back out safely you are welcome to come in and reload/resupply but I would expect to be in the field for the night.
