Hi -
I will be in the vicinity of Williamsburg, KY next weekend (Jan 25-27). I'll have Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday. Sunday night I need to be in Louisville. Taking pictures and relaxing are the only things on my itinerary.
I am pretty unfamiliar with the area as I've never been anywhere in KY before. Is there snow in the area this time of year?
What I am looking for are good locations to practice my moving water (waterfall, rapids) techniques as well as any advice on good scenic locations in general. There appear to be a fair amount of hills / mountains in the area so good day hike suggestions would be welcome.
My gear consists of a 20d, a tamron 17-50, a canon 70-300, Bogen 3021 tripod and a 322rc2 head.
I've done a little research and it looks like the big south fork river and rec area might be good, but wanted to see if I get any ideas here. Cumberland Gap?
Also, provided forecast stays as is, the lows will stay above my limit of 20F so I will be sleeping in a tent next to my car. Any advice on good campgrounds in the area would be great.
Website links or suggestions of other forums where I could post this would also be welcome.
Thanks!
