Not to insult anyone, but I want to first make sure everyone knows what a “Way Station” is. For me, it is that general store of sorts in a park that seems to always have exactly what you forgot to bring on your camping adventure. Marshmallows, check. Matches, check. Baked beans, check. Some even have postcards, ice cream and deli counters and various souvenirs.
It is also usually staffed with some really helpful people who can direct you, teach you and give you great information about the park. Maps, phones and firewood are usually staples at the Way Station.
So today we launch our Way Station page and intend for it to evolve into that same type of invaluable resource. We are preparing checklists, compiling favorite links, providing directions and more. This home page will still be the first place for new content, but before you head out on a hike or camping trip, be sure to click to the Way Station to make sure you have everything.
As always, if you have something to add or need a resource not listed, we want to hear about it!
