Clack Brothers Kentucky 2016

Kentucky road trip.
4400 road miles logged.
$600 in fuel costs.
17.8 MPG.
Diesel best price was $1.96.
Gas best price was $1.85.

Driving time was 33 hours each way. I-15 to I-40 all roads fair to good. WORST Rest Stops were in Oklahoma, almost all were closed. We stopped for fuel, food and numerous pit stops. There were 3 of us in the truck with 2 kayaks going and 3 yaks returning. Mileage going was 18.6, so it was better with 2 yaks.

We camped at Land between the Lakes. Back country camping permit was $7 for 3 days, we stayed 9 days for $21 per person, it let us set up our gear almost anywhere, including in camp sites, or out in the middle of nowhere.
15 Day Kentucky Fishing license was $40.

Very enjoyable trip, weather had the fish off the beds so fishing was not GREAT. We still caught Cats to about 6-7 lbs, bass, blue gill, and crappie.
Camp meals were fantastic. We decided to do it again NEXT year.
