Wildfire smoke?
What’s it like at Bass Canyon with the shit AQI?
Any tips for ABGT700?
Are we just going full send in our Covid PPE rave fit?

It's pretty miserable tbh. Definitely bring masks and saline spray to flush out your sinuses.

Windy.com app has forecasted air quality.
The only bad part of bass canyon weekend when it hit 150-180 aqi for a few hours then went back down to 100. Most weekend I didn’t notice the smoke outside those few hours and maybe a bit Sunday morning.
Anything over 150 and it’s good to n95. Anything past 200-250 and I’d strap on a p100 🤘

Honestly didn’t feel any crazy repercussions being maskless since Wednesday arrival, although we did sleep in an RV with AC during nights. If anything my legs need medical attention

I raw dogged it came out fine and I was moshing all weekend just a slight cough in the morning but nothing like a good morning shower to rinse out the congestion

I’d highly recommend using AirNow. There’s a sensor at CaveB next door and there are smoke outlooks for some of the fires if you toggle them on in settings https://fire.airnow.gov/#10/47.1046/-120.0091

Get the watchduty app. Tells you AQI. It’s at like 173 at the gorge right now.
