[at-l] Southern RUCKformation

[janl2@mindspring.com (Jan Leitschuh)]

What about near the Okefenokee?
I hear there is good canoeing on the Suwanee, and that could tempt me
southward.

Canoeing is great cross-training for hikers - like backpacking without the
work! I know there are outfits on the Suwanee/Okefenokee that rent canoes,
paddles and PFDs. 
Day "hike," then return and camp at night. Those that don't ant to paddle
can explore the parks and flora/fauna exhibits. Lotta birds and wildlife.

See:

Here's another, private site:
http://www.canoe-suwannee.com/
Even has weather and water reports.

T'would be nice in mid-late Feb. to hit Florida... but what about them
'gators? Don't they sleep or somepin? Don't wanna be falling in no 'gator
water in February...

Anybody up for a little adventure?

It all depends on the facilities people need...ya can't show a slide show at a semi-primitive campsite... ;-)
