We'll meet in the parking lot at the SFWMD gate just past River Ranch on a dirt road. Only Two vehicles per site are 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 to Tick Island Slough and/or Rattlesnake campground depending on trail conditions. We'll stop along the way 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 MAY BE A FIRE BAN, WITH 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 on the Kissimmee river.
