Just in case Mike doesn't repond right away....
Hello,
I was wondering if I could pester you for a moment about camping on
Little Tupper Lake? I think I might like to head up there for a mid
week trip some time this summer.

Where is the parking area, on County Highway 10?

I'd have to check a map but there is only one road leading into Little
Tupper and there is a large parking area near the beach where you
launch/register.

Is it near the Whitney Head Quarters?

I understand that there is some kind of self check-in where you post
on a bulletin board where you are camping?

I think Mike said it may have changed a bit but there used to be a board
with a map of the lake that had all of the campsites numbered. Next to the
map were numbered hooks with tags on them with Occupied on one side and
unoccupied on the other. Find a site that you like, check the tag and if
it's unoccupied flip it over. There was also a log book to fill out to list
your name, the campsite you're staying at, and how long you're going to be
there.

Mike also posted a really good article rating most of the available sites on
the lake. Do a google search for it before you go.

Also, just down the road is Lake Lila, which I've heard has a similar
boating/camping set up.

Any more info you can give to get me started, or pointers for maps or
books?
