Turkey Bay in W. KY April 7-9

April 7-9 Turkey Bay OHV in Western KY

Please also see some background on Turkey Bay in Spring thread. This is U.S. Forestry land.
I will come up with the wheeling prices, but they are pretty reasonable.

There is camping at the OHV, but there is also other lodging options in nearby Aurora, and lots of camping up and down the Trace in Land Between the Lakes. If we don't camp at TB, my vote is for Rushing Creek campground which is fairly close relatively speaking.

Hi Indy!

I pasted a link, scroll down toward the bottom of the page to find the rates for TB passes and camping fee.

The park hours are also on the page. If I can't make it, you guys have fun!

There are SEVERAL on another board I frequent. Many of the members go to TB all the time. www.itsagjeep.org and go to gallery. I don't know if you have to be a member or not to view. I'll try to hotlink some pics.
