After October, in this part of the country, anyway, you're running into two problems this time of year in the National Forrest: hunting season, and increasingly bad weather. I guess there's that Mississippi Thanksgiving thing for the rough and dirty tribe, Thanksgiving council in NM, but that's a working council, not a gathering, I have heard rumors of an October regional in North Georgia/East Tennessee, last one of those I went to, we had ice fog....not good camping weather. There are Florida gatherings in February, and maybe March now. Shawnee gathering's pretty much the end of the season.

:eek: SAY IT AINT SO!!!
lets not forget the one the following year ,when little hawk,nap and alabama joan(or was it jody?) showed up at the site there was snow on the ground and no one to be found.
yeah north georgia,east tennessee in late october is not a good plan.. at least not if your going to pick a spot at 3000 foot elevation...:rolleyes:

so now there are 2 sets of directions,one being clearwaters original directions that he deleted and said were not correct,but seem to have been reposted as correct..
it would be nice for family that was planning on heading to shawnee if someone could verify which set of directions are correct...
Clearwater

im on my way there now and i'll repost the correct directions one last time before i go.the people on the land that i have contact with via cell phones say this is the proper directions.at first there was some confusion.someone mistakenly said they were at one horse gap lake.the first [wrong] directions were copied from the forest service web site.the right directions were given to me from people family on the land.

i allways expect some misinformation and confusion in the directions.. i have nevrr once had doirections that were clear and exact, but as long as they get u in the general area you can start looking for rainbows around the nearest towns and find your way home
and sometimes u just gotta fillow your insticts
1 wandered around 1 forrest for a month with absolutely no idea where it was or even when it started then just 1 day for no real rewason at all just decided to stop looking.. 3 days later the 1st kitchen arived.. right where wer parked
with nothing but instinct to guid is we ended uop right at the trailhead
never expect directions to be perfect.. always expect to have to rely on faith and vission to get you home

This quote is from someone who is singlehandedly responsible for destroying the economies of several third-world countries -- and that's just the beginning. Go figure. BTW, he is supporting Obama financially. *Mega* support. Oh yeah, does the name "Mega Group" ring a bell?

so therefore wouldn't it make sense to heed his warning? ;)
