[at-l] RUCKs what do you/y'all want?

Picture in your mind a long capital P. That is the main road from the gate 
to the turn about below the falls. There are several cabins scattered here 
and there along the P. The registration and visitor center is about a third 
of the way up the stem of the P. Next to the visitor center is playgrounds 
and covered areas perfect for chats and gear comparisons. Across from the 
visitor center is a left turn that heads up the mountain toward the lodge 
and more parking and views from the top of the falls. (--P) There is a sign 
to the left for primitive camping as well as a parking lot for RV's. I 
believe there are other cabins scattered along this road.

At the top of the road is another parking lot and turn about for the lodge. 
It has a large lobby, dining hall, meeting rooms, and motel level 
accommodations.

The park is not all that convenient to quickly get from place to place by 
walking - at least not as convenient as Goose Creek. But the place is in 
better repair and preparations for winter use. We might want to have a walk 
to Len Foote Inn afternoon, or a car trip and stroll to Springer. We might 
want to stay by the fireplace in the lobby.
