Oh well, welcome to Columbus from the northside!

Haha, thanks. Lived in Pittsburgh for the last 6 years since going to college there, it's good to be back in OH.

I did a single night in the campground there - that was fun finding a place to hang.

You can get a great hang in the shelter at site 1. Lots of trees behind the site 1 shelter. Just watch out for acorns in the fall. Site 2 is good for a few hammocks.

I use the backpacking trails. Between site 1 and 2 there are about 6 non official sites that are nice. Behind 2 about a mile or less there is a great spot by the river.

Hidy ho from Columbus! My buddy is also on these forums here. Tons of great places to go backpacking in and around Ohio--I look forward to seeing you at the next group hang!

The spot by the river sounds interesting, and might be good for an overnight in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks folks!
