    Each campsite can (legally) hold 5 adults. Multiple tents allowed, as long as they fit on the pad.

    I did not ask about RTTs or teardrops - I figure we will do what we can, and if a Ranger shows up, he can figure out if we are OK or not.

    I am planning on getting a GMRS.

    My thoughts are to be in Blue Ridge shortly after lunch on Friday. I have to work in the morning.

    Where are you coming from? We could caravan up there.

    You won't have traffic going up 75 to 575 that early just saying. You'd be fine leaving later but to each their own

    I'm thinking about lunch around 1:00 PM on Friday at Bigun's BBQ in Talking Rock (east side of 515).

    Anyone interested?

    Could be a nice meet up spot to get those coming Friday all on the same page, plus it's super easy to get to being right off 515

    The weather report is showing great camping weather for the weekend!

    I will be greasing the wheel bearings in my teardrop today, then I am ready to go!

    Bigun's BBQ at 1:00 PM for lunch on Friday, then up to Jack's River Fields via Blue Ridge. Channel 4 on the CB.

    Can't wait!
