No one had ever heard of this area before the large, commercial, music festival took over. This concert event is a SoCal ritual for Spring, out in the desert east of Los Angeles; it attracts thousands every year with top performers always headlining.

It’s a big DJ party out in nature.

Symbiosis Gathering describes itself as a synaesthesia of art, music, transformational learning, and sustainable living integrated into an unparalleled extravaganza of fun under the Northern California skies. Founded on strong principles of environmental consciousness and ecological sustainability, each event has continued to advance a vision through the implementation of both time-tested and innovative eco-action initiatives.

July 4th marks the busiest summer week in California. It’s mid Summer for most school kids. The golden state has it’s biggest increase of visiting tourist during this month too, along with the local residents traveling on seasonal road trips. Plenty of traffic, be warned.

Camping July 4th means EVERYBODY and the GRANDMOTHER will be outside this weekend. The majority of big family camp-outs and the wilderness family BBQ take place — on this very summer holiday weekend. Stay away from the biggest campgrounds and tourist traps, unless you are into that. Head for the back country for optimal seclusion and the freshest creeks and coolest lakes. (click on the lake photo above to discover a new world of water in Cali.)
