How long do you plan to be there? Went last year; first time. There are many post about YS on this board. The best recommendation I read before our trip was to stay a few nights in one place and a few nights in another. We didn’t do that but now I understand the recommendation. Stay in on...

[quote]according to Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd.[/quote][quote]Judd said the scene area was “about as far out in the woods as you can get.”[/quote] Unless I picked the wrong lake, Sheriff Judd apparently doesn't know his own community very well.

And t...
