The mud was seriously the best mud I’ve ever experienced. ....
From my experience, there are different levels of 'Federal'. On one end, there are National Monuments/Parks - and on the other end, BLM (Bureau of Land Management), which is as close to you get to "Well, somebody has to 'own' it". In other words, if you don't cross a fence, it's hard to get busted for trespass.
(Ok, standard disclaimers - don't sink alone etc.).
The area was fenced off and had a gate with a sign that said “ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY” and the site looked like it was regularly maintained so I’m not sure if I’d want to go back lol. There’s another CDF down the canal with signs that say there’s 24 hr surveillance so that spooks me a bit. I haven’t seen those signs or any cameras at the one I sank at though
Sounds like the spot in georgia that is a bit too far for me to travel to. I've not gone because of the army bit. Yeah there are probably cameras you just can't see them. That and microphones possibly. My idea for spotting the cameras would be to get a pocket sized hidden camera detector on amazon for under 20 bucks. Go at night and you'll find them if their are any. There is this spot in georgia that definitely want to try but it's like a 5 hour drive for me. So idk if I'd go that's a lot of gas for me.
