Yes. For our state parks it has been in use since 2014. But , our free sites just went to the fee and the site. I feel it was a necessary evil and is actually going to be great in the long run. But, we know how some love change The good far outweighs the bad in my opinion.

I much prefer having a reservation and to know what site I am arriving to. You can go to the Allegheny National Forest and it is first come first serve, but with the popularity of this hobby, you may be searching for a site and probably not getting any of the ones you wanted. Other than the...

That is when the reservation window ends. With state parks, you can stay one night in the honor system. You pay in an envelope in a lock box. They were rumored to allow this for the sites, but so far...that has not been established. Before, you had to request the permit 3 days in advance...

You can reserve a site 11 months in advance up to Noon the day of.

Yes. You had to request a free permit with the forest district. Now, they can assist you with the reservation, but it is much easier to just do it yourself on the app or website. If you have stayed at any state parks in PA, other surrounding states as well, then you have already used Reserve...

Thank you. I will check that out for sure.

So, if you did not know or missed my other ramblings, PA motorized camping has changed. The formerly free sites are now 10 bucks a night, but the reservation process has become much easier. And...to my surprise...they got some decent maps of where their sites are. Tuscarora Rothrock and Bald...

@Zach_42a0dc This is the one I meant for you to check out.

@Zach_42a0dc Read this if you did not

The main route is 90 percent off pavement. The Blue and Red. Mostly the main forest roads. The only pavement is secondary roads...most do not even have lines on them. The green routes are nearly 100 percent off pavement, and include drivable trails and 4x4 high clearance roads. I plan to stay...

Found something to do with maps(my favorite thing) Purple Lizard released their 4th edition of Bald Eagle. There is a few changes for sure...but checkout how many are on this very small area. 4th 2nd edition

@Dusther210 was trying to post some of my routes. I unfortunately can not access the SD card they are on anymore. I have them shared on Facebook...and a member here posted slot of them in one big dump. I really dislike electronic devices, so most of my information is logged on paper maps and...

I am buying tires in the next week or 2...then I plan to spend the weekend adventuring through Rothrock and Bald Eagle. I have not been in the forest for about a month...withdrawal is terrible....State Park adventuring just isn't the same

Old Lancaster Valley gate is now back up. And early on in the year a fellow adventurer noticed a gate on Kammardiner Rd. Mike and the lizard team added it to the 4th edition also. I have not been in BESF in some time. Guess it is time to head back with the new map.

Already got it. Only 2 gate changes and they added distance to the shared use trails. Thank goodness, my old Bald Eagle map is a bit worse for wear.

I really prided myself on my memory...I turned 45 in September and it is like someone cut the lines. I sure hope I make it to 74,

I did share the memorial day trip.... https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/pennsylvania-forest-adventurer-2022.41777/page-2 I need to figure a better way to do this. I tried doing it by forest...but man it gets confusing...I am suffering greatly from being 45...memory sucks.

So, I did a search today looking for skuttlebutt about the site changes in PA, and found where I borrowed site information from. As he has updated with new information. I seen I was called out for a question about sites in the central District of Tuscarora. I greatly apologize for not having...

I was going over some things preparing a new route and a tutorial for the new reservation system and I noticed I called it Shagger's Inn Damn....haha..Dam...same thing ..lol
