Some participants, including me, spend the nights
in comfort at the Holiday Inn Express in Moncks Corner.
Others camp at the primitive camp site that serves as base camp
for the weekend. This year the number of campers may have
out numbered the moteliers. Most campers set up tents,
but there was a large recreational motor home
and a large camper trailer.

Most of our searching is done
from vehicles along the many unpaved,but all
weather, roads in the forest. There are some road walks
and very few off-road forays.
A few attendees brought bicycles.

This year we had a diverse group. Six young people, ages 6 to 16, attended.
We also had two newly wed couples.
