Based on your analysis, the Forestville park sounds like the best
bet if we
stay in a State park. However, I'll be traveling without camping
equipment,
so would likely stay in a motel in a nearby town ( e.g. St. Charles
if doing
the Whitewater, or Preston if doing the Root). Any reason it has to
be in MN
vice WI?


No reason for location that I can recall, except that somehow
driftlees area got into it. I never did figure out how I got
involved
in this in the first place. Probably the same way I became the ROFF
bouncer.

Avalanche would be fine with me. It's very pretty. It's as much a
part of the driftless area as SE MN is. If you prefer a real roof,
you might want see if one of the cabins (especially the one with the
indoor toilet) is free there... Otherwise it'd be a motel in
Viroqua.

I just thought Whitewater because I know the area, same for
Forestville.

Lord knows, I have enough camping equipment for a small Scout troop,
if you prefer to camp.

Looks like about 160 miles from the twin cities to Avalanche. I'm up
for just about anything, but there must be a lot of other
possibilities between the two.
