Dan,

You may want to give one of the 3 following 3 phone numbers a call. I don't have any specific info I can pass on to you. Also try a google search for Wayne National Forest.

There's about 75 total miles of the Buckeye Trail that goes through the Wayne and camping is allowed anywhere. The Archers Fork Area is very ineresting.

The first campsite at Zaleski State Forest is about 2 miles in, it would be good for kids. Then you have Vesuvius and Shawnee.
