My family moved to Akron last fall from Utah. We're here for my husband's grad school and we have 2 young kiddos (3 & 1). We seriously miss our mountains & the ability to grab our camping gear & go for a nice over-nighter up a nearby canyon.
Now I'm totally out of my comfort zone trying to make plans for a couple camping trips this summer. If anyone can give me some tips or answer questions that would be awesome
Finding a good place to make lasting family memories is priceless!
*Where to go? I'll take several suggestions I hope to do a lot of camping
I hear Hocking Hills is really nice, but I would have no idea where to set up camp. Is it easy to find a good spot without paying for a campsite? Is it possible to find a nice primitive spot & park your car there too?
*Campfires ... is it allowed to build our own fire ring? Should we bring our own firewood or is there plenty to collect?
*Do we have to have a permit to ride our mountain bikes?
*Drinking water access - should we plan to bring in all our water?
Maybe I should be posting these questions in a different forum? I don't know, I don't usually do this kind of stuff!
Thanks!
