Still adding names I'll get the map updated and post soon.
It's fun watching the numbers grow even if I'll be Cub Scout camping that weekend, I don't know how they can manage to always land them on gathering weekends. Maybe the summer one there's no scout camp out then other than the 3rd week in June.

I finally got off my derrière and made reservations for Cindi and I. We will be in site 58. It feels good being in the loop.

As the "Clifty Falls" spring gathering approaches, it will be interesting (to me, and maybe others) to follow the "Madison-Milton" bridge project.

Here is a link to the project site so you can see some of the details.

Spring Gathering at Clifty Falls State Park


WHEN: May 17-20, 2011

WHERE:
Clifty Falls State Park
Mapping Address
2221 Clifty Drive
Madison, IN 47250
Description:

Clifty Falls State Park is located near Madison with entrances on state roads 56 and 62. The park’s waterfalls change moods with the weather and the seasons and can range from roaring plunges to delicate bridal-veil mists to gleaming frozen titans. Winter and spring visits reveal them at their best. The rugged splendor of Clifty Canyon offers exciting year-round hiking and scenery.
Clifty Creek’s stony bed is littered with fossil remnants telling of a long vanished marine ecosystem that teemed with life that included ancient corals, ancestral squids, brachiopods and more. Fossil collecting within Clifty Falls State Park is prohibited but nearby collecting locations are readily accessible.
In Historic Madison, tour the Lanier State Historic Site, the former mansion of frontier banker James F.D. Lanier, and enjoy the drive along the beautiful Ohio River. Plan a park visit during one of the community's special events, such as the July Regatta hydroplane boat race or the Madison Chautauqua Festival of Art in late September.
Please Note: Clifty Falls Tunnel is closed until further notice
All caves, sinkholes, tunnels and mines on DNR properties are closed to provide protection from white-nose syndrome, a fungus that is killing bats in large numbers in the Eastern U.S. and is now spreading west. This includes the old railroad tunnel at Clifty Falls. To learn more about WNS visit http://www.dnr.IN.gov/batdisease. Thank you for cooperating with DNR in this effort.
