Any suggestions for a Missouri Element Campout?

Eh?

I wanted to get a group of you Element folks and head outdoors, looking to go yaking, hiking, fishing... and of course the best part about camping ----- relaxing.

Anyone interested? Hit this thread up with your suggestions.

...except where you wanted to do it. :twisted: Come on out to the beach! It's beautEful! :D

How about Eureka Springs Arkansas?
Plenty of cabin rentals in the area and there are tons of stuff to do
and it's not to far.

I'm up for a get together as long as I can bring my dogs !

If I wasn't moving this summer, I would love to come out and camp with you all. Have to plan for my drive to Alaska though.

I did float the Buffalo River in ARKANSAS. 5 day float that was great.....! But kind of far from STL....:twisted:

True that double true.

Kinda far to Arkansas.

Oh yah and feel to bring pets, etc. Don't forget your fishing poles and if you have a kayak or raft bring it.

---- Meramac? or Finger Lakes (in columbia, real freakin sweet... no cabins, tons of islands, inlets, swimming, fishing and of course lots of lakes) oh and a Big Bass Pro Shop within 20 mins [in case you forget something].

Pick a spot - and date
We'll dust off the old tent and see if we can make it

OK...Camping?????:cool:

Going down to the GREAT CURRENT RIVER South Central Missouri in Van Buren.:cool: Camping at Hawthorne Landing (http://www.hawthornelanding.netfirms.com/camp.htm).
My dog and I will drive down this Sat. morning. We are meeting some college friends from KC. Going to float/canoe Sunday morning. Going to be great times....Lot's of Guinness!!:D
Anyone wanna can join....I'll be in the MM E!:cool:

Ahhh... good old Current River... love it, love it! I love to go floating... I guess my floating trip will have to wait until next year. *sigh*

The CURRENT RIVER in Van Buren MO. It was a great trip in the E/camper.:cool:
I made my bed on the passenger side of the E-camper. My dog laid on the drivers side on the floor/padded. I used a sweet camp MOD: Take the Honda Skylight Shade Screen off the sunroof. Open the bottom tailgate close the top door. Set the Honda Skylight Shade Screen in the open gap with a fan in front. Fresh air and no bugs...I was the last to wake:cool:

I use the Kelly sunshade XL. It works perfect with the E-camper. You can open the back and it is a sweet fit. :cool:

The River was clear as can be. Very relaxing for my dog (Brutus) and I.:cool:
P.S. Lots of Guinness for Dad!:D

We did a drive by of Lake Wappapello. What a great looking lake. These are some pics from the Dam.:D

Great looking pics.....got to love that MM.....yeah..baby!:D

The E-tent is not H2O proof. I need to get some sealer and at least run it along the stitching...:cool:
