Originally posted by crabsnbeer View PostThe website lists that they have "Three back country camp sites are located along the trails for overnight expeditions". Is it casual enough that you could just park and camp in the wild or would I be better off just reserving one of the sites? Thanks for the info.Brian

I was almost killed by gnats there last year at 2 pm in the afternoon on a warm summer day. I stepped off the road for one second and they swarmed me.
I also saw a dead 7" speckled trout floating belly up in the canal - gnats, mosquitoes???
Be careful.

Don't know much about the area your planning to camp. But it doesn't take much for low footprint overnight kayak trips. Everything should fit inside the hull depending on your kayak. small tent, sleeping bag, a way to filter water and make food and you're set. A buddy and I did 3 nights on the Shenandoah last year early in the season. With multiple layers of clothing and a pair of waders we were able to fit everything we needed in a few back packs. It was a tight fit, but dry clothes took up most of our space.-Jon

I saw some pictures from the area and it doesn't look like fire wood will be available on those sand bars near James island. I have a gas burner to attach to a propane bottle and a stand but won't keep me warm or roast fish.PigPen - Mt Airy
