I've never been to one of those YT meetups but I'm guessing they are just kind of ignoring that rule. Each site has a sign with a "moon" symbol on it that is supposed to designate the cat hole area. Apart from the sign, the area isn't really defined. To be honest, I had the same thought as you and was afraid to go digging in that area, lol. I only had to dig one and I just wandered deep off the trail instead. The moon sign by site 4 was right next to a really steep drop off anyway. I don't see how it would be a good idea to climb down there to dig a cat hole.
Thank you for a very good review. I am 68 and getting back into winter backpacking. I will start hiking about 5 miles per day with a pack weight of 30 lbs (including food and water). As I go I will slowly increase the distance of my hikes.
Thanks for the sub! Mohican is really nice, worth the trip but avoid the weekends if you want to try for a park and pack site. It's also a great place to day hike.
@@personaltimeoutdoors actually ended up going yesterday and had a great backpacking trip there with my daughter. Pretty much had our pick of any site but when I looked at the check in sheet I definitely saw what you’re saying about weekends being busy. Your video was very helpful in planning the trip. Thanks again!
I'm new to back packing so such detailed information is so helpful.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I'm glad you found this helpful.
Probably will never make it there, but your information regarding camping in the park was very well done.
Thanks, I appreciate you watching!
How do they do these utube rondavues when it says max 6 per site .how bad is it when digging cat holes as far as digging up you know .thanks .

That's fantastic! Hope you enjoy it and thanks for watching the video.
Great information especially for a video format. Mohican is one of the few in Ohio I haven’t made it to yet. Just subbed…thanks for sharing!
