Oh shoot it'll take me just under 2 hours to drive there.. if that. I'll just bring a chain and lock the trailer to the back of my Explorer somehow. I'm trying to come up Friday to wheel and camp that night and wheel Saturday morning, need to be back in Richmond before dinner time. I've never been to Shoe Creek, you say there's a place to pitch a tent? Can I just leave the truck/trailer in a field where we're staying? Kinda like Flagpole - GWNF?

No, not really at all. There is no field or anything to leave truck and traler, that's why I offered my place. You would prob have to leave the trailer at the Food Lion parking lot in Lovingston and drive the Jeep to ShoeCreek. Yeah, there are plenty of camping spots around the trail. Ones big enough for a good sized group of us.

Brandon,
The end of the trail at crabtree meadows has a small parking lot. It is the best (most popular) place to to camp. From lurking the run is going to begin at Alahambra (bottom) of the trail and go up to Crabtree Meadows. It would take at least an hour to drop a trailer at the top and make the trail head. It would be better for you to start at the top run down the mountian and then run back up.

I dunno yet, I've got some guys coming up from Carolina that are supposed to camp out that weekend also. As soon as I hear from them I'll post it up so people can meet or find us.

LOL, no problem! You're more than welcome to drop your trailer at my place if you don't want to leave it in a parking lot somewhere. Pm me if interested. Hope you do come on out!
No problems with beginners! We have meets and actually getting ready to have one pretty soon I think. We are discussing a meeting date now. I'm not really sure where you are located but by that number I am assuming NoVa area? This would be a good one to go on for a beginner because its camping involved and we aren't rushing through =a trail so some people can get home because they promised their wife they would be home by a certain time.
Feel free to PM me any questions you have about meetings or trip stuff.
