From Brother Chip: “There are huge barns to camp and park in. There is a ski lake for those that will be on jet ski’s. Hollywood talked about two places to camp, one was near all the action and another was down by the lake. There are numerous campgrounds, hotels, and cabins within a few miles. We will post more details after Hawg Valley. As an aside there are a lot of activities in the area. Canoeing, caves, museums, good riding through the hills and we were planning on meeting up with the FMRC for a breakfast and ride if you are all up for it. They are having their Rally at the HUB in Harrison and had expressed an interest in getting together.”
