Renting a car is your best bet. A bus will get you to Evansville, IN which is roughly 90min from the site. However, Evansville is not exactly a big city and the bus station is not really in the heart of downtown or anything so I'm not sure what your rental options from there would be. That could save you some cash though.

Wherever you wind up, you'll need a GPS. Input "IL-1 & Lamb Rd, Cave In Rock, IL". The actual location of the Gathering is completely off the grid but this will get you close enough. There are plenty of signs pointing the way from that spot. Getting lost from that point is not a big concern.

Right, so basically, I'm in the uk, I got one shot at going to a gathering as its so expensive to get there, I don't think I could ever afford it again, nor did I think I ever would be able to afford iT, but I got as far as this; get a plane to Chicago. How do I get from cave in rock from there? I wanna try and calculate how much I need to save. I think you know how much this means to me.

homie you prob not goin to be able to rent a car. unless u have sum parents , friends or whoever to get, pay and reserve it for ya, but dont no how that will work. since ur out of country, so if i was u i'd start researching transportation your best and cheapest chance is evansville,In. dont no if international flights come in ther though check that out also, but where ever u decide to fly into check for taxi cab companys. theres always places that have like vans and cars and stuff like that for transportation, from the airport so i'd try my luck with the taxi cab and its prob cheaper then renting a car. if u can fly into evansville jus get a cab. from evansville its like 45min to an hour. from ther youll need to get on state road 1 travel south to lamb road. if u pass it you will see A highway. its state road 146 thats where u can turn around, u can only turn right onto 146. an thats wher thers a gas station. thats open! unlike ryda said, but anyways if u turn back around there and head back the direction u was comin from, u will turn right on the first road you come to. thats lamb road! then travel that road "which seems like an eternity cuz ur ready ta get ther" for a few miles or so. you will continue  to go down that road which is hilly,winding etc.then you will come to a road that t's off, go right ther an keep goin straght and your ther homie. {shangra la} i can picture as if im ther right now. hope u make it ninja good luck homie mcl and if ya get ther an need some more info on shit you could always jus call me fam if your serious an you really need help with info,directions jus private messeage me or the best way for me to get your message is buy emailing me and then i will give u my number my email address is [email protected]

on a another note! dont listen to ryda hes a stupid hater. and the people down at the store/gasstation he is talkin bout. our very cool people they respect us! an if u was to have problems with runnin outta gas. big hog daddy that runs the place will hook you up an get gas for ya,so its all good.               MCL YO!!!!!!!!!!!!
