Jasper

if we go I'll more than likely rent the hotel room just down the steet. especialy for the ability to take a shower if nothing else....

[Teej]

Is it safe to take kids there to ride and will a kids quad make it? Also, how do you get there and where do you park?

Thanks, Teej

Does anybody know of a campground where i can use my motorhome that is fairly close.

[Moose]

Don't know if lil moose is going to make this ride. He had his appendix taken out last Tues, so we'll see, that gives him a month to heal. He's doing fine at home with his mom and older sister, so he's doing OK.

The camp ground is a little ways south of jasper not to far though.

The camp ground is a little ways south of jasper not to far though.

I drove by the place a while back. From I-75 and 6, go west to the next major paved road, check a map for the name or number. Go left, south, down a couple miles you cross a bridge, the Alapaha River. Some people park there, and it's the last bridge before the real deep stuf. Right after it is a deep hole.
Keep going south from the bridge and you come to an Agriculture Inspection Station on the left, the camp ground is right accross the road I think. The camp ground is on the Suwannee just down river from the Alapaha.

Can you tent camp at the riding area.

[Chuck_Norris]

Can you tent camp at the riding area.

yes that is what a few did last time out

[Moose]

A couple of times some of us camped a mile up stream. The best advice I have for camping on the river bed itself is, get those long tent stakes at wallyworld. They are the only ones that will hold your tent if it gets windy, I have seen tents rolling down the river bed like huge beach balls. Had to tie them to tree branches. The stakes are rather cheap also. The sand is very soft, and I mean soft.

Thanks, Teej

i dont believe kids quads will do well there. but if others have tried using them chime in. the sand is super super soft, the water crossings can be deep. and there are times you'll be riding along steep river banks. ive seen several adults roll over. i have flipped over backwards climbing up a trail leeding out of the river bottom. this is a challenging ride. im not trying to scare anyone but people get hurt here. some serious.

went through that some years back. mitch and his brother made it to eagle but i must add that it was a bit of a battle when they were in high school. they're glad they made it now. i had enjoyed the campouts.

9:00    sounds great

[qt314nfla]

I think I'm out for this one too unfortunately.  Just got back from Red Creek and it was a long and expensive trip.  Maybe have to wait till next year to get back up there.

Anyone have any directions for people living down south?
Directions from Leesburg or Orlando would be great.

I-75 north almost to the Fl.-Ga. line. Hwy 6. Keep right to stop sign. Turn right go about 100 yards and get off road, go down incline to right and park under bridge.

I'll take this a step further. Wilbur, From your area take the turnpike to Wildwood, That will dump you on I-75. Then follow Yunts directions
