(I'm just seeing this now, lol)
I wanna go but might be getting a new job this week, so I'll know next week or so if I can get that weekend. Was supposed to go camping in February/March this year when the pandemic started and didn't go because at the time I thought it would be just a minor hick-up in my plans...never went camping and last October was when I last went, haha. Its been a messy year, and some social-distancing camping sounds like an amazing thing to do in October.

What does everyone suggest?
I think the Trail Side site is kinda far. Think it shows it at 2 miles. While thats great for a hike and camp all weekend. Not so much for back and forth, and gear is set to be near vehicle.
Hey JD, that's awesome that you'll be joining us! As for that camping spot, yeah, you're definitely not going to want to stay there. It's a decent hike in to those tent sites.

You should be good to just squeeze in with one of us at one of the sites we already have. @Staticline40 and @JButtress , I think it was a bit tight when you guys shared a spot last year but definitely doable, yeah?

Thank you I'd appreciate it. Not really geared for hiking 2 miles and camping. lol Just read that the sites are easier to get to via kayak/canoe. lol

Ha, yes, that is actually true. :laughing:

Are you running a ground tent or roof-top?
