Camping in Pennsylvania mountains

Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 weeks since we got home!

We had a fantastic trip to "Havoc in the Hills" at the Rausch Creek Offroad Park, an old coal mine in PA (northeast of Harrisburg), for a truck off road event. The weather was PERFECT for the event and camping! The campground wasn't so great, but our group of campers made the stay so much more enjoyable!

Here is Carl all decked out and ready for fun.

The campground (Echo Valley) only had a single toilet open for the whole campground. That was a little disturbing since it was in the same room as the closest shower. But we didn't let that mess up our event! We made sure we had fun no matter what!

Nice! A buddy of mine used to guide at the other now-closed-down-and-the-name-escapes-me off-road park up in PA. They always had a good time!

We were at Rausch Creek, but there are quite a few up there from what I understand.

I'm sure it was good times up there. I used to go to RC and Paragon all the time. I have an early Bronco setup just for those Parks. It's been sitting for 5 years rusting away. )-:
