This year it's camping in the Adirondacks for me.
I'm registered for six days at Fish Creek Pond for the 2007 Tearup. (site #233)
I'm excited because, as a kid, some of my best camping memories stem from the Adirondacks (Tupper lake and Saranac lake as well as the Thousand Islands.)
The reason for my early arrival (June 11) revolves around my older son's wedding in Pittsburgh on June 9. Since I live in Indiana, there is no sense in going "home" and then driving to FCP. I'll make it a long week and enjoy the mountains.
The extra 12 hours gained by going straight to FCP will result in more time "teardroppin".
I don't own a kayak or canoe, but the I suppose I can always rent one for fishing and cruisining the lake.
One question; What about a fishing license? Does New York State require a short term license to fish at FCP?
Hate to waist the time looking for one after I get there, so any advanced information would be great.
I'm hoping to bring my wife along, but she might still be numb from the wedding. (we'll see)
I am aware that FCP has no electric hook ups so the Honda (1000i) will get a good workout for the week.
I'm looking forward to the trip, the camping and meeting the board members and others along the way.
