Nobody is maintaining the access road, and the potholes have gotten progressively worse in the past 2 years (and especially past 2 months). I no longer attempt to drive to the trailhead with only 2 WD.
I love camping at Hog Cam Gap! When you want to glamp, you can't go wrong here. Plus, it has a beautiful sunset and it's a short hike to the top of Cole Mountain if you want to see the sunrise! Oh, Mount Pleasant is right next to it all.
Great if tenting but very limited for hammocking. Beware that on weekends, you may be rudely awakened (at 5am) by various loud hiking groups (in my case a college group)who are unaware of people camping out. Close to gravel road, so you'll hear cars and trucks at all hours. Water source nearby if you have a filtration method. Would've been an awesome spot if it wasn't noisy.
Excellent base camp for Mt Pleasant and Cole. We had a surprise snow/sleet storm with low overnight temperatures.
A beautiful camping spot in a meadow surrounded by old apple and oak trees. Nice flat spaces to set up tent, a wooded area for hammocks. The Spring is a good walk away, but flowing great!
