    I posted some aerial pics of the place starting on post 222. I'm going to try and setup as far in from the main road as possible. It was pretty quiet there and close to a couple of water faucets. I'm going down Friday morning and set up. I'll post a pic of my truck and canoes later so everyone knows what to look for.

    I'm leaving FL Thursday morning with TDW. We'll drive until we don't feel like driving anymore and then stop for the night. Probably arrive fairly early on Friday.

    No there isn't. It's a primitive campground. It has pit toilets and there are fresh water faucets around the campground. In total, there are three campgrounds in Greene-Sullivan State Forest and all of them are primitive.

    The average highs for those dates are 83F. The average low 62F. The record high is 95F and the record low is 45F. It looks like we'll be on a waning moon so bring your lanterns. (or torches if Wychwood is coming. LOL)
    Now,now, I wish I could Rick. Sadly funds are lacking so I'll wish you all a very happy jamboree and hope a good time is had by all and everyone stays safe.
    (Oh you could have a few beers and bacon sandwiches for me tho) and I expect a full and detailed report when you all get back!
    Have fun! and make sure your torches have spare batteries!!

    Just read back in the thread and got all excited!! Gosport!!! that's near Portsmouth I could be there in 4hrs! then I remembered the Indiana bit
