Um, no, I never wrote that. I'm agreeing that their dates and choice of National Park ... as one of only two dates posited, and the ONLY ONE included in your list, Kevy, was the defacto winner.
So I went on to urge, as I always and consistently have ... that we consider using the campsites that Not Afraid, €uroMeinke, Nirvanaman and myself visited last year for the express purpose of determining a location for the future Swank Camp in Kings Canyon.
If this year IS that future Swank Camp, why not use the sites we personally visited and approved?
Has anyone visited this Group Camp? Seen it with their own eyes? It seems to me, and perhaps I'm incorrect, that the desire to have a reserved site is trumping all other considerations. But I am constrained to again point out that it is our reasonable bid for security which has us going to Kings Canyon for the second year in a row, instead of trying for Yosemite.
Ok, I understand and appreciate that. For the dates that work for most people, Yosemite would be too big a gamble. OK, so we choose Kings Canyon which is far less a gamble. Are we willing to take a sight-unseen site over a personally scoped-out campground in some kind of (imo) misguided effort at complete security?
Personally, I think choosing an unseen group camp over a visited campground to be a far greater gamble.
