The California tartan is the official tartan of the Black Bear Pipe Band in South Lake Tahoe. I believe they placed one of those 30-yard orders some time back in order to have the tartan on hand for new band kilts. PM me if you want me to run down their supplies or supplier.

Alan's suggestion of a group order may be the way to go - and it doesn't of necessity have to be F&K, except to support an XMarksTheScot member.
