for clarification, thats the counsel site right? not the final gathering site?

[Bumble]

damn it, i thought that was the national gathering site. I'll go back to holding my breath...lol

I know, it's confusing! If you go to the 'Reality check' thread you'll see the same 2 site directions that are on welcomehome(I heard they were on welcomehome...I haven't had time to double-check for myself) Family are all over the area & the directions are the same for both sites. Once you are close, you're bound to run into folks who are more up to the minute.


Update-

This is what is on welcomehome: (not sure if the links will work...)

Where the Gathering will be in 2007

This year the annual North American Rainbow Gathering (hence referred to as the Gathering) will be near Fallsville, Arkansas. Directions: Go to Fallsville, Arkansas, which is at the junction of Hwy 16 and 21. Fallsville is north of Clarksville and south west of Jasper. A map of the area is here (http://mapper.acme.com/?ll=35.79220,-93.47056&z=15&t=S&marker0=35.77936%2C-93.46965%2CfALLSVILLE%5C%2C%20ARKANSAS&marker1=34.81708%2C-91.49540%2CALLSVILLE%5C%2C%20ARKANSAS).There was no clear Spring Council consensus this year, but this appears to be where folks on the land are going as of today. The USFS has given their approval that this site doesn't have any environmental or other issues that would prevent this site from being usable.

Since there is no clear consensus, some scouts are pushing an alternate site by Stokes Lake, Arkansas. Directions to that site are: Interstate 40 to exit 24. Go straight north to Stokes Lake. Keep driving past the camping area and continue till the road crosses the creek. I believe this link (http://mapper.acme.com/?ll=35.63574,-93.93594&z=14&t=T&marker0=35.77936%2C-93.46965%2CfALLSVILLE%5C%2C%20ARKANSAS&marker1=36.59944%2C-97.05278%2CSalt%20Fork%20Arkansas%20River%20OK&marker2=35.63574%2C-93.93594%2C11.4%20km%20NxNW%20of%20Franklin%20Coun ty%20AR) points to this site.
