LEGEND:
We use traffic signal colors to identify certain key elements of the venue.
No permit necessary except for photographer. DO NOT exceed 15 max people as the Rangers will verify!
There is LOTS of parking… the spots just are typically full. Check out the free shuttle they offer!
If you want a modicum of privacy, you’ll have to hike into the park up a steep hill. One decent spot if anyone has mobility issues is near the Ranger Station.
Clean facilities are available throughout the main park area; not on trails.
Bring the pup!
Unless you hike some distance into this very busy park, expect it to be noisy.
This park is very public oriented and you’ll find water fountains in the main area.
No shelter is available for the ceremony for bad weather; buildings (shelters) are for weather emergencies.
