Summary
Don’t have a tent, sleeping bag or mattress? Don’t worry, I have extras.
Join us for a relaxing time camping (or rent a rustic cabin) in Shenandoah National Park just 2 hours from DC and 2-1/2 from Richmond! Bring your marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate for s'mores. Wake up to the smell of bacon cooking in the crisp mountain air.
We’ll be camping at Lewis Mountain Campground, just off Skyline Drive, Mile Marker (MM) 57. There is a camp store for showers, food and snacks so this isn’t primitive camping by any means!
This is a first come-first served campground so I won't know the exact campsite until I get there but will post it to all attendees once I have the campsite. I'll have a 2018 Burgundy Honda Ridgeline. There is limited, sporadic cellphone reception at the campground.
Directions To Trailhead Parking Lot
User your favorite map app to find the campground. Search on Lewis Mountain Campground, Skyline Drive, Stanardsville, VA which works great wtih Google Maps.

- Comment: I will be backpacking in SNP's South and Central Districts for several days prior, but will try to time it so I arrive Wednesday 7/25 at Lewis Mt. CG to wind down for a weekend with you guys. I will procure my own site for 4 nights assuming there are any available. Will need to hike south one of those days to fetch my vehicle I plan to park somewhere between Swift Run and Pocosin.
