I'm thinking about taking my 6 year old son up there in a few weeks for a short two mile hike to try to catch some fish and pitch a tent. Anyone have any good experiences there? Nice spot to camp? Thanks much in advance!

I hiked the Fall Creek/Cross Creek loop in September of 06 and remember it being a very beautiful area. Cross Creek can be marshy in places so it would probably be wise to bring a tent (rather than tarp) for mosquito protection. Sorry I don't remember specific places to camp. Here's a preview:
