I saw the gold trout. I can remember going to little river in the 90's and catching some really nice browns. Stayed in spring and enjoyed the turkey hunting, trout fishing, ramps and mushrooms. Loved the place.

These videos are great, I have found out about 3 excellent dispersed camping areas that I had no idea about previously, despite spending quite a lot of time in the MNF every summer for years now. Thank you!

[@miltonaliff3316]

My favorite place on earth, been going there for forty years.

[@dadventuretv2538]

Thanks dude. Big help. Finding disbursed camping is such a hassle. Vid like this are super helpful. And close to Snowshoe- might be a good place to camp when mountain biking snowshoe.

@@LivingOurDreamNow my little channel is basically for myself and for the same as you- to pay it forward since I benefit from other channels by being able to check trails and areas out before I go, so I know that feeling. Like to let others know that their work is appreciated.

[@hillsonmission4797]

I love how you walk down in all the campsites and show us all the little details. It's a big help for planning our next camping trip and finding awesome new areas we haven't considered before.

Just got back today (9-21-22) Our site (#4) was 12.6 miles of gravel road out of Durbin. The forest road was off a side street, Highland Street, I think. I missed it, stopped in the small town of Bartow at Forest Ranger station and they had a detailed map. The towns thru there are have VERY limited grocery supplies. Little River Dispersed is a remote area. No cell service due to a radio astronomy observatory, even in towns of Durbin, Frank, and Bartow.

Has anyone else seen the golden trout in the video?

A golden trout in this video? Can you point me to the time stamp. I shot the video and didn’t pick up on a golden trout. Lou

[@rodneysites4239]

@@LivingOurDreamNow Look carefully at 8:44, I see 4 in the stream. Golden trout were stocked in Little River in 2020 as part of the gold rush stocking.

[@mikelandes5168]

Great vid !! About how many camp sites are there ?

[@miltonaliff3316]

At least twenty, some places are big enough for several groups

[@kyled7605]

Can you pull your vehicle up to the camp sites here?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Most campsites may be accessed with your vehicle next to the campsite. Some campsites require a little walk from the vehicle, but still in close proximity. Thanks for watching!

[@vernonbrowning4649]
