The hiking trail between Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge is now ready for paving. Shouldn’t be long now.

Crockett's Craft Corner question
djsamuel replied to mmfancipher's topic in Crafting: Camping and beyond
When we were last there in October it was a wooden Fort Wilderness sign. It was actually pretty nice. -

If you're not boondocking or adding solar perhaps switching to an AGM battery over a normal wet lead acid battery would be an option. Less maintenance than what you have and a lot cheaper than switching to lithium. I thought of lithium, but since I always hook up to electric, I couldn't justify the cost. I switched to an AGM battery this time.

Right now it is packed. Very few empty spots.

Resort Boat Loop?
djsamuel replied to AC in A2......Aaron's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Not to this point. When we were there in December/January; a cast member working one of the boats told a guest that the boats will return when Disney buys some more boats. Of course, who knows how accurate that is or how long it will be before Disney buys more boats. -

Unforunately, this is another example of a few spoiling it for many. We spent four weeks at the Fort from early December to early January. There were quite a few people; many of them too young for a drivers license, who were riding around in what would be better described as electric motorcycles. The had wide tires, a motorcycle like frame, useless pedals, and were FAST. They also had loud radios and many were being driven very recklessly. The Fort Rangers were trying there best to pull them over and keep them under control. I have to admit, those electric sooters weren't slow either. M -
Trails End Closing

Ft Possibly closed until Oct 7th
djsamuel replied to Grumpy and Grandma's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
We drove by Saturday and it was closed. All lights at check in were red. -
The trail between the resorts is still closed (in fact no longer exists). However, there are signs of work that was done to repave a trail, but no progress in a long time. The boats between the resorts are still not running.
