I have the t-shirt that I want everyone to sign. I was supposed to send it to WS but didn't. Nevertheless, I am going to get the attendees that will be at the party next week to sign it, then start sending it around to the rest...

we could go dayhiking in Otter Creek maybe. A dayhike up Seneca Rocks would be cool too.

Day-hiking in Otter Creek qould be nice.

I know of a huge swimming hole about 4.5 miles down creek.

One could work up a wicked sweat on the way back out, though.

I do not care where, but would like to keep it as a car camping/cook off trip.
It has worked for the last two years and would hate to change it. my kids are not to keen on backpacking so this is why I like the idea of family car camping. (stikmon, you make one comment about this trip and I will bytch slap you!!)

Regardless of which place works best, this will still be a car camping and cook-off trip. I just don't want Mapes to get arrested and hauled off to some country slammer for trying to skinny dip at midnight.

If you skinny dip in those streams, be prepared for major shrinkage.

I noticed that at the Blue Bend site, the group campground doesn't appear to have potable water.

The site Geobeet suggested is near the booming metropolis of Elkins.

They have grocery stores.

Yah, but this is a car-camping trip. I don't wanna have to do more than reach out my arm and turn a spigot for water, lol...

I am a maybe on this trip...A little less likely now that we have a family vacation planned, but still a possible.
