Halloween in Glamis.
Plan the weekend before you tow.
Camp RZR and Can-Am demos have different schedules. Pick the activity you want, confirm its current requirements, and arrange your permit and camp before arrival.
Can-Am Maverick demos
Can-Am lists its separate Glamis Halloween gathering for Thursday through Saturday, with Progressive and SCS Unlimited named as partners. Use its event page for demo registration, availability and rider requirements.
Before you leave home
- Arrange your Imperial Sand Dunes permit and check the current BLM rules.
- Check temporary Cahuilla services at Cement Flats. The operator schedules an October 16 opening, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Friday through Sunday. Verify before relying on onsite services.
- Choose a legal camping area. BLM's September 17 order prohibits overnight camping at Osborne Overlook October 26 to November 1, November 23 to 29, December 28 to January 3, 2027, and February 8 to 15, 2027. Day use is unrestricted by this order, which preserves emergency aircraft landing access. Read the BLM order and review Cement Flats restrictions before choosing a meeting point.
- Check the wind and forecast, plan water and fuel, and agree on a group meeting point.
- Set up Camp Compass before leaving coverage and save your camp when you arrive. Agency maps and posted closures still control where you may ride.
