    Looks like we'll have a good crowd. So far, seems like 7 vehicles (assume that Winnie is catching a ride in). I'll see if I can find out what their policy (if any) is on extra vehicles (site lists 10 as the limit along with 50 people).

    Looks like a good group to camp with. I am sure we can spin a few yarns around the campfire at night and in the early morning when the coffee is brewing.

    I spoke with somebody at the camp today. A couple of vehicles with small utility trailers are OK, so H63 and Krat should be good. There aren't any provisions for over flow parking. If we get to over 10 vehicles he asked that I call him back so we can work something out.

    Cool, thanks....make my life easier with the trailer.....maybe could fit in the truck....new truck isn't racked out like the older one.

    But It's good to know now.....gives me time to make adjustments if necessary.

    Thats about it from what I understand. Crash had been kind enough to provide links for local hiking trails and waterfall so we can view them before we arrive so we do not actually have to hike while there. LOL

    That's about it, Gryff. Crash is the advance guard and en route takes a few snaps, then the rest of us arrive, and the food and coffee starts flowing. Don't believe a word of all this going for hikes and visits.

    From a third party site concerning pet policy
    Dogs are allowed at Briar Bottom Group Campground, but they must be kept on a leash no longer than 6 feet when outside your vehicle.
    I would call the number in the links to verify.

    I caution on one very important point.


    I'll have varmints wise to a canine. Natertot will have varmints wise to fur. That's two completely different varmint mind sets.

    What kind of dog do you have? Can the dog take part in dinner?

    Looks good! But I don't think I could eat a whole one.
