My son and I will have room for 8 to 10 people to camp and park their boat for the weekend. We have some property in Rapid City which it not to far from the torch river. I am going to be going up on Friday the 30th of Sept and coming home on the 3rd of Oct. If any one wants to camp give me a pm so I can get a list going.

Thanks

Shoot. I forgot to get back with you. Put me down for now. Need to save money.

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

We stayed the night there recently.  Think it was the Comfort Inn, more like a 2 or 3 star.  LOL   Price was reasonable though.

Are you sure it isnt really you that doesnt like camping FF. You can still come over to the property and spend some time telling tall tales with the rest of us. Ill keep you informed as to what is going on as far as a cookout goes.

   I was considering coming over.  Might be tight on time.  I believe my daughter has a soccer game that day, (Saturday)so we'll be leaving afterwards.  Might not hit TC area til 6ish.  If we can swing it we will stop by.  Keep me posted.  :)

There's a nice campground at the south end of Elk with nice cement ramps for launching your boat. The campground is almost directly across from the opening to Skegmog. I believe it's called Whitewater Campground.

Technical problem with the spelling of that link so I added here for bob o so it'll work correctly.
