Informal font to accompany informal document. Roads color-coded with respect to their relative ease of travel. Selection of the most obvious sites based on multiple field trips into the area and two instances of leading field camp groups through most of the area in vans.

In terms of logistics, Birch Creek is optimal camp for large group, but does require large backtrack on one of the field trip days. I suppose one possibility is to camp at the Rome put-in on one night. Monkey-wrench? Maybe. However it is pretty easy to blast out of the field area via the southbound route that crosses the bridge north of Rome. In any case, the road network and the site distribution may inspire us to come up with a novel route...give it some thought.
