You guys are climbing at Rumbling Bald in the summer? I would definitely recommend waiting until the winter, it's a serious reflector oven!

JellyStone Campground right off of Hwy. 226 is a good place, and only a mile from my house. Buck Creek campground, which is in the Lake Tahoma area is good. Also, Tom Johnson Camping Center offers campsites. It all depends on your style, tent or coach. All these campgrounds offers full hook-ups and tent sites.

A month starting when? I'd potentially be down for a cereal buttress evening or morning when it cools off a bit. Let me know.
