Rep Power: 36 | | | Most any place in the Ozarks of Arkansas, but "Longpool campgrounds" in the Ozarks National Forest is very nice. Lots of trails, good fishing, and great site's for the 28' trailer.
The campground host is very nice, and keeps the place up to HIGH standards.
If I'm motorcycle camping, most any place will do, just get off the road a couple hundred feet.
If I'm backpacking, the Buffalo river area is great, just beautiful.

1. Red River Gorge in Kentucky.
2. Any canyon I can drop into and walk out of in desert country.
3. Sebastian Inlet, Florida
4. 10,000 Islands, Florida Bay
5. Various high meadows and coves in the Smokies and along the Nantahala River in NC. (In the snow.)
6. The roadside between Sinop and Ankara in Turkey.
7. Nahal Darga in the Judean Desert in Israel.
These were the high points of my primitive camping. Living in the field in the military does not count. I have a positive outlook. I just gave myself a new back packing kit from R.E.I. for my coming 63rd birthday.
I am also building a Totch Brown wade and drag boat for a point to point trip across the lower glades and above the upper 10K Islands in Jan.
I AM

I try to go July of every year. I fish for my dinner almost every night and hike to the top of Mt Whitney once.
