    Places to Backpack Between North GA and Southern OH

    Looking for some ideas on places to meet a friend from north GA. I'll be coming from southwest OH and looking to meet somewhere in between.

    So far on the list is Big South Fork or somewhere in the southern part of the Daniel Boone NF.

    We're looking at a long weekend. Not set agenda for mileage and what not. We would prefer something that allows open backcountry camping so that we can plan on the fly. So, places like Gumberland Gap are out since you have to reserve and stay at scheduled sites.

    Any ideas?

    Red River Gorge seems popular.

    Thanks!

    I should have included RRG in our considered list. I'm very familiar with RRG. We make look for something more in-between and less crowded.

    Of course you have the big south fork , and about two hours south check out savage gulf . Lots of waterfalls and some decent elevation changes . I think you start out on the rim at about 1900 feet or so and go to gorge where it's about 1000 - 1100 feet . Also have wilderness areas in north ga .
