We'll meet in the parking lot across from the bathroom at the trailhead. Only one vehicle per site is allowed, so we can drive through the gate to drop off all our tenting gear and drive back to leave vehicles outside of the gate. We'll hike about 2.5 miles in to Hickory hammock Campsite and stop for lunch (bring your own) and a break, then hike back. Everyone is free to meander around the area. Dinner is pot luck, bring a little something to share. THERE IS A FIRE BAN, SO NO CAMPFIRE. Camp stoves are allowed. We need to break down and leave by 10 AM the next morning, and whoever is interested can join me to do an exploratory (I've not been there) kayak to (or toward) Lake Istokpoga.
