I noticed that some of the members here have camped there in the past and I enjoyed lurking on the reports and gained some valuable insight into the local terrain by reading the posts.
I have one question for the Florida folks who have camped there - did any of you use the CR-471 trailhead entrance, and did you leave your vehicle parked there overnight? I am wondering if it is safe to leave my truck parked there overnight. Have there been any reports of problems there - vandalism, theft, etc?
I usually camp near the Peace River this time of year, but we've had a rainy winter and the river is too high for kayaking and fossil-hunting, so I am looking to do some stargazing from Gator Hole. Any help with the overnight parking issue would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
