Where do I go?
There is no parking at the Burns Piñon Ridge Reserve itself. (Please don’t drive there.)
Instead, park in Pioneertown and meet outside the Red Dog Saloon. (Have a drink!)
Shuttle service to the Reserve will leave hourly, on the hour. Driver will be holding a sign that reads TRANSVERSE RANGE.
Return service will leave hourly, on the half hour.
Note that reception in Pioneertown and at the Reserve is not reliable.
What will I see?
TRANSVERSE RANGE features the initial results of community-building and creative opportunities pursued at the Burns Piñon Ridge Reserve by students and faculty at the University of California, Irvine Claire Trevor School of the Arts.
Will there be snacks?
There will be snacks. We’ll also be serving simple grilled dinner fare at 6PM. There will be plenty.
We hope to see you there!
