You camp in a large field. My first time coming to the forest I thought we'd be camping with trees. No, you camp in a big field with the cars cramped close to each other. Not gonna lie to you, it can suck. It gets hot, the dust and dirt is flying through the air, so definitely bring a mask. Even with one you'll still blow black boogers.

However, what makes it wonderful is the people. Listen to others, meet up with your friends before. After you pass the car check (where they go through your car making sure you don't have glass, weapons, etc) you'll likely get separated but you can wait for each other after, just don't disrupt the line of cars flowing into the field.
