Come on out for an end of the season hang, it is located on about 40 wooded acres of privately owned land, land is owned by the church that is right across the road. There is a Kwik Trip located right down the road, and a couple bars that serve food in the area if anyone is interested. We can spread out and have multiple fires if desired, or have just one main long fire. I will be bringing some dry wood along just in case we need it to start the long fire. Anyone is welcome to bring some dry firewood from within 10 miles of the location. Bring your own chair or feel free to make a bench. We will need to make 2 tripods so we can hang pots over the fire if anyone wants. I will also be bringing a long table to be used since there are no picnic tables, if anyone else has the room to bring a table that would be a great help.
Cost to us is MINIMAL! Water is available but less then 1/4 mile away. But there are no facilities so it is a cat hole weekend or the 5 gallon bucket latrine! And there is NO shelter, unless we set one up. We can string up a large tarp as a shelter if desired. Camping animals are welcome as long as they have current vaccinations (there are possums, raccoons, and skunks on this land and don't want the camping animals catching anything) and are well behaved! Kids welcome as well! There are some walking trails going thru the woods and people do walk these trails so please remember to be respectable. We can harvest any down or dying trees, so chainsaws, axes, and saws are welcome! If it is stable ground then someone is welcome to bring a 4 wheeler to move wood. We are allowed to drive back and drop off equipment if the snow is not to deep or its wet (don't want to tear up the ground).
There will be a plowed parking lot that vehicles need to be parked at.

The parking lot to park in is right across the road, and woods located right behind that parking lot.
Our cost is spending a few hours on Saturday showing off our systems and talking with Scouts and people interested in winter camping (if we have anyone decide to show up). I believe this is a decent trade off for us being allowed to use the land and harvest the wood.
There was a bear siting in these woods a few years ago but nothing as of recently.
