I also boondock in the Pigeon River Country State Forest. I do it in early October and have seen 2 big bull elk and hear them bugling.

Where do you set up camp? Do you hunt?

I've tried grouse hunting there, but never saw nor heard one. I'm keeping my exact spot secret to not have it taken when I go. There are many spots to camp.

Steve, The joke around here is, “ I won’t ask you were you hunt.....but we’re do you park your truck”? [emoticon]

We spend or at least use to, three(3) weeks every year....boondocking and elk hunting. Hope to start spending more time out!
Solar is great, but in the fall/winter, with cold weather, short days, and long (cold) nights....you would need quite a system.
We have six (6) panels and six (6) batteries.....and still have to use the generator a bit. Though, we’re pretty wasteful. We probably average 3 hours television/day, plus the furnace runs a lot when the temps are in single digits. But....that’s winter camping!

My Jeep couldn't even move all those batteries!

Nice photos, but if there are signs and a picnic table you are not in the boondocks yet.

ppine, I'm stumped -- where are the signs and the picnic tables? You must have sharper eyes than I do!

Thanks!

Old logging landing site turned into State Permitted Boondocking site. 12 foot pup, 19.6 feet OVA, and keeping cool without AC in direct sunlight. Closest experience to western US boondocking on the eastern border of PA.
