I have gear, and it's packed and ready to go at a moments notice
I would bring the g/f

Good answer.
Pog Lake is in the middle of the 'corridor' and is our confirmed destination.

No problem Andrew. I can even paypal you if you'd like, as that way we'll have an electronic record which is just as good as a receipt any day. Your call entirely, and of course dates in July/August are equally flexible.
EDIT: this is just a reference for everyone who is considering this trip, and has never been to Algonquin Park... the "corridor" 2001 ZTS referred to is the series of drive-in camp sites along Hwy 60 which runs the length of the park from East to West gate. There are literally more sites than you can shake a fist at but they fill up fast. Below I've posted a map, feel free to PM me if you need directions to the park. It's about a 3 hr drive from Toronto if you take a decent length pit stop.

May 28th we're getting married, and leading up to that date is going to be rather hectic. Sorry guys, maybe sometime at the end of June / middle of July?
Camping Is A Go!: Make A Reservation - ANTHONYD - 02-08-2005
I fit all the criteria.
INCLUDING leaving early on Friday.
Most likely I would stay with one of you guys Thursday night to make sure I don't have to commute back to Burlington to get my stuff.
Let me pass it by the Nazi Spoiled Scum bag I call my girlfriend. :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm kidding.
She's not a Nazi.

Have two spare beds at my place Anthony, so whenever the time comes, feel free...

Dates are June 10, 11 12 (Fri, Sat, Sun). Getting a trip in relatively early opens the possibility of a second trip later in the summer.

I've not stayed at that campground but I know what area of the park it is and don't understand it either cause it is one of the more out of the way palces at Pog. I think the answer is "noisy" in relation to what? It is closer to Hwy 60 than some other sites but I remember it is a good ways off. There is also the noise from the beach during the day but it is a small beach.
No need to rush the money since I'm now letting everyone reserve their own site. I was just worried about being out hundreds of dollars. I can handle being short $34 for a little bit. :lol:
Lets see who else steps up and actually makes a rez?
