Yawgoog Scout Camp,
Rhode Island

Directions: Go to Turnpike (north), get onto the Garden State (break at Montvale reststop on your own if you need to gas up with cheap NJ gas), continue north to Route 87, head EAST across Tapenzee Bridge, after the bridge, go 1.5 miles to exit on route 287 take it 10 miles to get to Route 95 -and then keep heading on 95 NORTH (EAST).

We will probably meet at the reststop just past Exit 53 Branford. About 4.71 miles past the point route 91 goes north in New Haven in CT (gps 41.28581N / 72.83382W). Figure 4 hours or so and 190 miles to this point.

LOCAL MAP: Follow I95 to Exit 3B (Rt. 138 West). Follow Rt. 138 through your first traffic light. At the second light (blinking yellow), take a right to continue on Rt. 138. Follow 138 until you see the sign for Yawgoog on your left. It can take from 5 to 7 hours depending on traffic, accidents, etc.
