A couple weeks ago at Virginia's Occoneechee State Park, near the NC border.  We enjoy this park for its beautiful woods, hiking trails, roomy layout, and only 1-1/2 hr drive from home.

A view from our T@B's window, with steps down to a picnic table at our site #16, with our grill & lounge chairs.  Lots of nice Beech trees here.  We like this setup, which gets us farther off the road & into the woods.
Hard to believe this was our first camping trip of the year, but it's been a busy one for us.  This was also our first camping trip with our new Hyundai Palisade, and it performed admirably.  It's a bit of a downsizing adjustment for us, after giving away our 20y/o Toyota Sienna van; so we may actually use the roof rack one of these days, if we take our inflatable boat, bicycles, etc.  We've been spoiled by the Sienna's cavernous space with seats flattened &/or removed, but enjoy having a new & smaller vehicle that still carries a good amount.

Pymatuning is a very nice park!

Late Oct at James River State Park..

Hiking along the mountain ridge to get to the river overlook..

Overlook facing NW with a view of the Tye River where it empties into the James River..

Tested out the bike rack on our new Palisade..  seems to work fine, though a bit of a close fit on sharp turns with 2 bikes, even with a long tow bar..  

Works OK, just need to avoid super sharp turns.

Cheers to another successful & enjoyable outing in one of our more remotely located state parks, though only a couple hours from our home in Chester, VA.

When I last checked HH didn't permit clamshells, because of the outdoor kitchen. Now they do, sort of:

Have you found that problematic?
