Steepest hill EVER.
Yes, even worse than alpine valley.

I'd say you're right on all counts, But the camping isn't any worse than camping in any big field surrounded by a bunch of wooks at a festival. And I'd say the view at The Gorge makes up for whatever else it's lacking. Which would be? Plus, it's one of those venues where The Phish have a good rep as far as delivering the goods.
::missed the reference to lacking vegan food::
it's been a while for me. you talking in the venue or outside? how common are vegan options inside the average venue? as far as what's outside the venue......
but i'm biased. the gorge is one of my favorite outdoor venues and i've seen some great Phish shows there. i'd have to say horning's hideout is my favorite.

The logistics and amount of time needed to get back and forth to the Gorge always dissuaded me. It seems like so much work and money to camp.

It’s a pilgrimage in every sense of the word.
Once is enough for me.

So far San Francisco is the only west coast Phish I have done. Someday Tahoe or L.A. would be cool.

for sure, it ain't the easiest venue. it ain't for the wook who places a premium on air conditioning, and all the other amenities you get in a hotel. last i was there for phish was '03. i could see prefering a hotel at this point in my life, almost 20 years later (that'd make a good song title). but it ain't your typical (sub)urban outdoor venue view either. i kind of like the idea of beautiful places being beautiful cause they're kind of isolated. once you put a Starbuck's and other conveniences in the vicinity..... but that's what's nice about ter. the variety and seeing large parts of the country.

I got there at 3 pm and didn’t get park at my *premiere* camp site until 7:30. This is the thing that soured me more than anything else. Get there the day before. Best tip I can give.

Tahoe looks fun. Rent a cabin, rent a bike.

Tahoe looks fun. Rent a cabin, rent a bike. My brother lives in Tahoe. Kept his tix from last year. He's stoked. Lotsa Heads up there. He's dialed in. Good resource. Happy to put anyone in touch if need be.
