An open field area with several campsites you can camp in for free up to 18 days. It is similar to an area up at Grout Pond (see yesterday's photos), or even the camping areas at Six Nations Horse Camp in Watkins Glen NY.

Paid for by Stimulus Dollars. Money actually used for a good purpose.

There are many road side campsites along Kelley Stand Road, Forest Road 70 (to Lye Brook Wilderness) and Forest Road 71 (to Stratton Air Field/Kelley Stand Road). Most of them are pretty basic with no facilities but stone fire rings, although some are a little farther back then others.

This is a very nice, basic roadside campsite, assuming you brought all the gear you really need or want.

The best part of camping is the campfires and being able to burn my trash. Playing with fire is fun, even if some of this styrofoam and plastic stuff kind of smells and puts out black smoke when burnt.
