Michigan DNR, Pennsylvania DCNR and Vermont ANR Plotted
Michigan DNR parcel GIS data is taxing my computer to it's limits. I have to set my CPU's to "high priority" for Google Earth Pro and it barely runs it. I can't find any shapes of for DNR's reservations. Instead, I'm using the parcels, which has a lot more entries. I'd like to color code them for the camping that's available, but with how I'm throwing everything my computer's go into it and it's running really slow, I don't think that it's worth it.
Google Earth displays the state forest reservation lines, but doesn't have an icon in them telling me what it is. I started the DIS C I's and O's (dispersed camp, on and off), but it's a shot in the dark if I got them right. They will probably have to do?
The state polygons (shapes) for Pennsylvania commonwealth reservations are in. It's state forests are few, but dispersed camping is permitted and they're all colored green. I just finished up Vermont's state reservations. That's it. The ground work is laid for camping. The next thing I'll be doing is lodging and I should probably be done with that quickly?
And of course all this is a continuation of my North Country Trail mapping project.

Camping on NCT VT & NYS
I got the campsites somewhat done for Vermont and New York State on the North Country Trail. What really needs to happen is that I start the governmental reservation map image overlays. That is needed to paint a complete picture. I used GIS data for Adirondack Park, state parks, forests and wildlife management areas. They're now color coded green for dispersed camping permitted, yellow for no dispersed camping, but has other fixed campsites and red for no camping at all. At this point, the folder with mostly New York's commercial camping needs cleaning up because of how I searched for them and copied the results in Google Earth to one of it's folders. They also need to be coded as "C - (name)" to be read on a small GPS screen.
