    Badin Lake Campground, NC - Aug 17-19, 2012 -last minute hang

    Rented site #029 at the Badin Lake, NC, campground for this Fri and Sat. Looks like there will be room for a couple other hammocks - so I can share this site with a copuple other hammockers. Lakeside campsite

    Let me know if you're interested in joining this last-minute trip. First to post a firm commitment in this thread get first dibs to share this site with me. Other sites are available but, i think, must be reserved at least 24hrs in advance.

    Place will be noisy probably, but I am mostly interested in testing out some new gear and trying different setups for a couple tarps and hammocks. There will be lots of lollygagging! Water and Restrooms nearby. Lake is kayak friendly for most areas.

    Max is only two cars per campsite so If you want to share this campsite then lets talk carpooling and alternate parking spots before you arrive. If you reserve your own site - let me know.

    DIRECTIONS

    From Troy, North Carolina, take State Highway 109 north for approximately 10 miles. Turn left onto Mullinix Road (County Highway 1154), and travel approximately 1.5 miles to a stop sign and "T" intersection. Turn right, and go approximately 2 miles to another stop sign and "T" intersection. Turn right, then make a quick left and travel about 1 mile to the campground.

    I am home and finally dry and rested after taking a short nap.
    Had a great time testing out gear and just hanging out at the lake! Thanks to Loki for his generous hospitality.
    Now to get out there and unpack and dry out everything :-)
