Okefenokee Paddle & Cast Iron Campfire Cookout

Join us for a weekend of paddling the Okefenokee, rustic camping, and campfire cooking. Camping at Griffis Fish Camp is $6 per person per night, please have exact change. There is also a $2 launch fee. Tent, hammock and car campers do not need a reservation. We have the Red Top shelter #4 reserved and you can pitch your tent anywhere in that area. If you need hookup for a camper, call and reserve a site.
Saturday morning we'll leave camp at 8:30 and drive to Stephen C. Foster State park to launch. State Park fees apply, you can borrow a state park pass from any Ga. library if you don't already have a pass. National Park Passes are also acceptable for entry.
We'll paddle down Billy's Lake, pass by Mixon's Hammock and on through the Narrows and the Sill. If water levels are good we plan to paddle a mile up the Sill and wind our way back down to our lunch stop at the boat ramp by the Sill parking area. Then back on the trail to Griffis for a total of approximately 10 miles. Be prepared to portage your kayak over low spots and deadfall if the water is low.
Back at camp we'll get the fire going and start cooking! Cooking is always optional but the more the merrier. There is no menu, absolutely anything goes. It's all for campfire fun. Come sit around the fire and show us what you can do with your old cast iron, or roast hot dogs on a stick. Bring your own plates/bowls/utensils/drinks to help reduce waste.
Please bring some firewood, it gets dark early in December so we'll want to enjoy a nice campfire both nights and we'll need it for cooking Saturday night.
Sunday morning will be a leisurely packing up, drinking coffee and eating cinnamon rolls cooked by the fire.
