Camping at Cove Lake State Park (TN)
Busy (or lazy) weekend in Cove Lake State Park (8/20-23) with some GEOCACHING
Details
I am planning a long weekend at Cove Lake State Park near Caryville, TN (just north of Rocky Top, Tennessee!), about 30 miles north of Knoxville. I plan to arrive on Thursday night, August 20. Friday, I plan to go geocaching in the area, maybe along one of "power trails" nearby.
Saturday morning, I will be attending a geocaching gathering that involves a CITO (Cache In, Trash Out) event, a couple of classes on basic (and advanced) geocaching, finding practice caches and new REAL ones, win prizes, and eat a FREE lunch. More information will be provided to those that express interest in participating.
Come for the entire weekend or just for a day.
I do hope to exchange messages ahead of time to iron out details as much as possible - so that no one is surprised or disappointed.
Are you singing, "Rocky Top" still?
Directions
On I-75, about 30 miles north of Knoxville, TN, take exit 134/Veterans Memorial Hwy and head east. Go 1/2 mile and turn left into the main entrance of the park. My camping reservation has been CANCELLED. I will be at the Park Office at 8:30 a.m. for the CITO (take first right upon entering the park). The other events, starting at 10:00 a.m., will be in the Recreation Building at the end of Goose Lane (the first left upon entering the park).
