Question What is the parking situation like at the Tahoe staging area?

What is the parking situation like at the Tahoe staging area?

This year I am thinking of leaving my towtruck (F250 pickup)a t the staging area in Tahoma. I will be there mid day on Thursday, I am concerened about parking. Any idea if the lot fills up? If so can you park of to the side of the road?

If the lot fills, you can drive back towards tahoma, and park in the "turn outs" on the road...

There have been years where Bears have broken into rigs that had food in them (think half bag of chips, in/out fires, etc). Make sure you remove any trace of food. I know other guys that sprinkle pepper on their door jambs, to deter bears.
