This is the post from last year and I think it can still work:

OK gang here's the route I looked for heading down to ECXC.

Meeting time: 8:30 a.m.

1st meeting spot: Milford Service Station
http://www.ctrestareas.org/flash_image_ ... I95SB.html
Location: 95 Southbound just past exit 41
Notes: This is one of those service stations off the side of the road. It's also right after exit 41 as stated above and right after where I91 runs into 95S for all that are coming from points North.
Departing time: 9:15 a.m. Sharp!

From there we will be going down to 287 and over the Tappan Zee bridge towards the town of Suffern,NY (which is what I'm putting on to my GPS as a point) arriving at our 2nd meeting spot which will be listed below. And that's where we'll be meeting up with Donald (Dmpmfd). This leg has and estimated travel time of 2:30 hours.

Meeting time: 12:00 noon (roughly)
2nd meeting spot: Shell Station
Location: 152 Morris St, Morristown, NJ
Notes: This will be the final pit stop until we get to the campground. Also this is where we'll be meeting up with Donald. This is a gas station so we can fill up there and head down to the campground.
Departing time: 12:30 p.m. Sharp!

From there we will continue on our last leg of our journey. And from this meeting spot should take us roughly 2:00 hours travel time. with and estimated arrival time at the campground being roughly around 2:30 pm. Giving everyone plenty of daylight to set up tents and what not.

Now remember these time frames are rough estimates and not exact. They was provided by the maps and I figure with us traveling a little faster than the suggested times, we'll make it there a little sooner (hopefully).

Romeo.. thank you for posting this up. Everyone, as we're heading to a new campsight, I'd like to see who wants to run down together and get down there fairly early so that we can both scope out the location and get settled. I'll be starting a second thread for planning, but if you're heading down on Wednesday, post up here so that we can be sure that we're getting everyone involved that wants to be.

Mike how early are you planning on going up? Are you planning on leaving Tuesday?

I'm going wednesday. I can leave as early or as late as will work for the larger group as I'll load the X on the trailer the night before. So, there's no real time for me to set as a deadline

If you're going down Wednesday, I'm good with the two of us doing it. It seems like everyone else is going at odd times, so we may as well head down together.

Do you want to take 84 down? I was going to go up to the pike and go over from there, but I can do 84 over so that we get to miss most of the traffic.

Post subject:
yeah i can meet you where 691 merges on to 84. I believe it is exit 28 on I-84. Just let me know what time to be there and ill wait on the shoulder or maybe off an exit...

Good idea I'd like get there my 3p, so since it's about a 5 hour drive, want to shoot for about 10:30a? I'll look on mapquest to see what's over there and see if there's a suitable meeting spot to work with as well.

Post subject:
Yeah 10:30 is fine just let me know what exit or rest stop.

I checked and it looks like Exit 26 would be an easy off / easy on location. So, what I can do is, if I get there first, pull off the highway and off to the side once on the main road. If there's no place to pull off, I'll look for someplace that could work. I installed a CB in my pick up last night, so I'll be on channel 6 if you want to try and get me when you are in range.
