Sorry, I been busy since I got home this afternoon. I found 3 sites that would be perfect for what we wanna do. The first one is Campsite 1, next Jake Best, finally Campsite 9. They are all off the same road, just further up. Campsite 1 is first, Jake Best the next and Campsite 9 is the last.
I wanna use Campsite 9, but depending on if there are people there are not, we can use Jake Best or Campsite 1. Campsite 1 is actually outside of the Forest Boundary but still usable.
I will have a sign posted up with ETSG in big black letters over the Campsite sign at the one we will be using. They are all off the same road, so once you pass Campsite 1 and there is no sign, Keep going to Jake Best, no sign, Keep going to Campsite 9. They are numbered sequencially, so its easy to find.
The Cedar is a bit of a let down, I gotta try to find some more or something else entirely to use for the bow drills. But the Red Oak and Hickory are going to be perfect.
Everyone will need to use 2890 Citico Road, Vonore TN. for a final destination on their GPS/Mapquest. This is the last known address on Citico road, and that point starts the forest. Continue on Citico Road until it turns to gravel, and go some more. It will go back to asphalt, and back to gravel again. You will see Cherokee National Forest Campsite # signs as you travel. Look for the ETSG sign over the Campsite sign, for our final location.
Once again, Kabar/Becker and myself will be sponsoring the rewards for the competitions.
Dress and pack for COLD weather, as it will be in the low 40's to upper 30's in the evenings. Gathererers can arrive as soon as Friday morning.
Post here, or email me, or PM me if you have any questions or comments. I will be leaving Thursday of this week to get the grounds, so after that, I will have no cell or internet connectivity, so I won't be able to answer. There is a BP at the turn off of 411 HWY onto Citico Road, it will be your last place to gather anything you may need.
I hope to see all of ya'll there, we gonna have sum fun.
And don't forget, field trip to Ethan's place on Saturday!!!
