Is this ride still on and if it is what is the cost of camping. By the way, this should really be put in Events, I had a crap of a time finding it again.. ::025::
The Ride is still on for sure. I have scheduled the entire week off from work so if someone wants to show up early on Thursday let me know. I've been scouting out some great rides over the last couple of weekends and the rides will be fun with an obligatory lunch stop for some tasty road food in the middle of Nowhere, AR.
There is one cabin still available Cabin. Link here >

Please note that you will have to bring your own linens, pillows, washcloths, towels, soap etc.
Also the road from Shores Lake to White Rock washed out from a flood last fall and the road was supposed to be fixed by March but still isn't. I'll post up a by pass route in a week or so for those coming via I-40.
Camping is $10/night and If we can get a headcount, Paula said that she wouldn't mind roping a few sites off for us. The campsites in general will only hold about two tents/4 people but Paula is somewhat flexible about that. That would be about $2.50/night camping.
Also please note that it is many miles to the nearest grocery store and many more miles for beer. My wife and kids are coming up for part of the time and I don't mind "making a run" to have frosty road beverages available after the ride. I'm thinking that we will grill out on the mountain Friday and Saturday night dinner with standard fare, burgers, hot dogs, chicken.
For those who want to make their own route to White Rock Campground the coordinates are N35 41.429 W93 57.382 this is in hdd mm.mmm format.
We will not have a formal registration and will "pass the hat" for donations to help defray the cost of beer and food for those involved.
If you a definitely coming please PM me. I will start a list so we can get an idea of the resources needed. Thanks, J
