2014 Appalachian Campout

By the looks of some of those (foggy) pics, you guys need to puff a lil less on those cigars!
Thanks for sharing, great scenery in most shots

They are called The Smoky Mountains for a reason...just a little different than the fog coming off of Seneca Lake

lol, and with -6F here this AM Joe, old Seneca is puffing.

So, as the weather is starting to warm (its actually going to hit 40 today), I'm starting to look at travel plans. I just got a kitchen pass approving me for a trip this spring and wanting to see if BRMC is one of the options or not. I'd like to make the SEO ramble but we have a big VB tourney that same weekend which I'd rather not miss. But if this doesn't materialize I may have to rethink.

Is this still alive or did it die on the vine?

 

[SLK50]

I'm still hoping it moves a little further north.

I simply can't make it to BRMC in one day.

 

[wheatonFJR]

Yeah, is this thing happening?

Bueller? Anyone?

 

[Intech]

Calm down everyone! I was out of town for 6 days. This is still on and I am leaning towards BRMC. (Sorry Robert)

 

[Burnspot]

Looking forward to this one...should be fun!

 

[El Toro Joe]

That make three of us...

 

[wheatonFJR]

Hey!

It's Curly, Moe, and Larry!

You should be. Back in '10 after I got my FJR, this was my first real substantial MC trip and I didn't know a soul. Even though I was a cabin pussy( that came with an appropriate amount of ****) this has always remained my favorite outing.

Can we officially say this is going to be at BRMC and on the weekend of 5/31-6/1? With the winter PMS and not being able to take a trip all last year, this is all I seem to think about. The other reason I ask is that they start taking reservations in March and I want to reserve my luxurious, no power, 2 bed cabin you see below right away.

For any other potential cabin *******, the price is 45/night, minimum 2 nights on weekends. At only $30 over camping per night and not have to lug all the camping gear along it's a no-brainer, but thats just me!

I am going to call the campground this week and verify there is nothing else going on that weekend. The last weekend in May is definite. BRMC is almost definite pending contact with them. They will need to know ahead of time for food service too, so as we get closer I will need a head count for those that intend to use it.

edited to add- weekdays they need group reservations for breakfast. Below is the verbiage on food service from their website:

Kitchen Hours
Coffee Served 6:30 a.m. Weekdays in Lodge
Coffee Served 7:30 a.m. Saturday and Sunday under Pavilion
Breakfast Weekdays for Group Reservations under Pavilion
Breakfast Saturday and Sunday - 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. under Pavilion

Dinner Tuesday through Thursday for Group Reservations under Pavilion
Dinner Friday and Saturday - 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. under Pavilion
Kitchen Closed Sunday Night

Ooh, I like it... a picnic table.... a place to sit as I point & laugh.

Good thing for the that table. It's probably too uncomfortable to point and laugh once you have to lie on ground to sleep!

Thats right! You mentioned it before. Comes with valet parking and a masseuse named Sven, don't it?
