During your Stay
- Gate Protocol – Participants will be listed with the gate officer. You will receive a pass to be displayed prominently on the dashboard of your vehicle.
- Respectful Driving – Speed limits are strictly enforced. Twisting roads, low light and fog can contribute to poor visibility. Wildlife crossings, and recreational uses including hiking, cycling, and horseback riding create a multitude of potential hazards – adjust your driving to accommodate these conditions and to observe general goodwill towards residents, staff, contractors, service providers and all you encounter.
- Fire Danger – Dry, mountainous terrain creates the potential for extreme wildfires. Smoking is severely restricted in open space and strictly prohibited on the golf course at any time.
- Respect for Wildlife – Creatures of all types thrive on the ranch. Most are harmless, all should be left in peace and observed from a distance.
- Cell Phone and Data Connectivity – There is very limited cell coverage for both data and voice, and visitors should plan accordingly. Wi-Fi connectivity is commonly available in proximity to facilities. The on-course cell signal is stronger for those on the AT&T cellular network than for others.
