    If we're planning on staying a couple of nights...I was thinking about bringing some wood. Hate to rely on what may/may not be available around the campsites. How much would be enough?

    (For those not familiar, you can't cut down trees or remove limbs from trees. You are only allowed to burn what has fallen to the ground.)

    Firewood and other rules...

    Here is some stuff I cut and pasted from the Forest Service FAQ:

    Is there firewood at the campsites?
    Not always, so it is a good idea to bring your own firewood. Some areas have firewood that was gathered and stacked by Forest Service employees for use by campers. Gathering small amounts of down and dead material for campfire use while in the Forest is allowed when available.

    Can I cut firewood?
    Permits are required for cutting personal use firewood. Firewood is offered to the public as it becomes available. Firewood permits are available and administered at Ranger District offices. Gathering small amounts of down and dead material for campfire use while in the Forest does not require a permit as long as the wood is used on site.

    Here are some other rules:

    CAMPGROUND PROHIBITIONS/REGULATIONS
    1. Being in the area after 10:00 p.m. and before 6:00 a.m., except for campers.
    2. Camping over 14 consecutive days.
    3. Operating an electrical generator after 10:00 p.m. and before 7:00 a.m.
    4. Occupying a campsite with more than 2 vehicles or 8 persons.
    5. Discharging gray water onto the ground.
    6. Possessing or operating off-road vehicles in developed recreation areas.

    8. Parking off designated parking areas.
    9. Must have one person occupy campsite first 24 hours.
    10. Leaving camping equipment unattended for more than 24 hours.
    11. Bringing in or possessing saddle, pack or draft animals in developed recreation areas.
    12. Possessing or discharging fireworks.
    13. Dogs must be on a leash less than 6 feet long.
    14. Possessing open container or consuming alcoholic beverages on swimming beach, adjacent parking areas and boat ramps.

    We're going to get several sites which should accommodate the number of vehicles.

    Me, Chris and/or Mike will probably get there early enough to pay for and reserve the number of spots. We'll get an exact headcount a few days before the actual date and know how many spots to reserve.

    Once everyone shows up we'll settle up on payment to reimburse whomever pays for and reserves the spots.

    Yep Alan, that's the plan.

    We have had extra cars in the past and as long as we register them with the caretaker, there is just an extra fee in case we have too many vehicles to cover the 2 per site.
