Boondocking in Eastern KY.

Hey guys and gals I have some questions for you all! I would like to start boondocking as sometimes we tire of the "parking lot" feeling of some campgrounds. My first question is where do you all usually go to boondock? Does anyone know of places in Eastern KY where we could even do it? We have many state parks but they all have developed campsites with the closest to boondocking being a dry camp site. I guess maybe I'm a bit jealous of our members from the western U.S. where is "seems" like you just drive to the beautiful location of your choice, pull of the road, and set up camp. Hopefully someone can tell me this is not the case so I don't have to be so bitter

Don't have any firsthand info but suggest you google Corps of Engineer Campgrounds and National Forest Campgrounds. I've stayed in some of these and you may find something which meets you're needs. Good luck.

That's true, I'm sure most of America's idea of boondocking is how we live everyday! Or at least that seems to be the stereotype.

Try this web-site for starters. Not too many for KY. There are more out there, butt this has plenty to start with.
