Isn't that in South Dakota or Wyoming somewhere?
I'm game.
Hrm. Perhaps the center of population would be a better idea? Currently for the US, that's in Missouri. Can't seem to find what that would be for all of North America, or even just Canada & the US.
Yeah, I don't care when the sun goes down
Where I lay my weary head.
Green, green valley or rocky road,
It's there I'm gonna make my bed.
NOT!!
I agree. I've been camping quite a lot over the years, and two of my favorite and most memorable experiences were quite remote. One was when I was about 16 or 17 and we went to Shoshone Lake in Yellowstone Park. To get there, you can either hike 16 miles or paddle a canoe 8 miles across one lake, up a river, and then across another lake. We took canoes. The camp sites are located 1/4 to 1/2 mile apart around the lake. The latrines are simply a small wood box with a hole in the top above a hole in the ground. Ours was on a small hill with a fantastic view of the lake. The other trip was last year when I went with my son, brother-in-law and his sons, and a few friends with their sons (and a couple of daughters) to a high mountain lake in the Uintah Mountains (a little over 10,000 feet elevation). It was about a 4 mile hike in. We spent a few days at the lake and hiking to other lakes. It was fantastic.
Well you know what they say about sci-fi nerds being two tents during sex...
And if you get caught you'll be done for "loitering within tent."
Yes. YES.
I love it when a pun comes together.

Dudes: did you not read my earlier post. Apparently, a place called Rugby, North Dakota is the geographical center of North America.

Although, after having viewed the surroundings a bit, I'm more than willing to use come other criteria to shift that a bit. No offense to North Dakotans, but it doesn't exactly look like the garden spot of North America.
B.J. was referring to the population centre, not the geographic centre, for what it's worth.
