Labor day weekend plans?

I'm planning a camping trip for the holiday weekend if anyone is interested in going. 96,000 acres of God's country. It's about an hour south of the bridge, one of the world's largest golf communities is minutes away (*******), and my camp spot has a lake right off the back for canoeing and fishing. Plenty of trails and woods to see all kinds of wildlife... deer, elk, porcupine, coyote and the occasional black bear.

Anyone wanna go? It's free! just bring what you need, and what you don't bring can be had with a relatively short jaunt back to civilization!

I would go. You are saying an hour south of the UP right, because that is the only bridge I can think of.

Berger Chevy's annual All-Chevy Show is Labor Day weekend as well. I went last year just for the cruise to Rosie's Diner and had a blast. I believe Dreamer1Q is planning on going and I am as well.

I definately want to go, but I will probably go alone, so it will be cool if a lot of people go, and not just timberwolf and his family. Do we have to bring food and stuff???

well, if you don't bring food you don't eat

There are stores about 20 minutes away, and we usually make a run once day for ice and beer and stuff. But I would bring a cooler full of grub and not have to worry about it up there

I will go if you go

But really, I want to go, as long as it is more than just two people. Is this still on Timberwolf?

It's about a half hour or so once you get back to the paved road to the Atlanta ORV trails. That's where I rolled my Raptor 2 years ago lol

So far everything is still a go...

I was planning on going to the Berger show, but now that's no longer important to me, so mabye I'll go up north with you guys.
