Difficulty: Intermediate
Description:
Things in the Ocala National Forest have changed quite a bit in the last year. The rangers are cracking down on plastic containers, swimming, inflatable vessels and fun of any kind. What was previously a festive redneck party spot is now a very solemn, empty place ruled with an iron fist.
Bottom-line: Do not attempt to bring food or water in any kind of non-tupperware/nalgene plastic/paper/etc. Also, do not attempt run in a duckie - these are explicitly forbidden. Also, do not do anything that might suggest to a ranger that you are having fun, for you will be thwarted. (Jeff)
