Hoosier National Forest Backpacking - Charles C Deam Wilderness - Peninsula Trail Camping on Lake Monroe

The Peninsula Trail, located in the Charles C Deam Wilderness in the northern section of the Hoosier National Forest, is one of the most scenic spots to hike, backpack, and camp in all of Indiana. Join me as I meet up with an old friend and some new friends to backpack the peninsula trail out to the point and camp for the night to another spectacular sunset over Monroe Lake. On this August trip, I brought a nice seasoned ribeye and a cold beer to enjoy around the campfire. If you haven't visited this location then you are missing one of the best places to camp in Indiana. But to reach it you either need a boat or are able to make the 5-mile hike out to the end of the trail. But if you do, it will be so worth it...

The Charles C. Deam Wilderness offers 36 miles of trails for hiking, backpacking, and horse riding through scenic hardwood forest and varied terrain with views of nearby Monroe Lake. The area was designated a wilderness in 1982 and encompasses nearly 12,953 acres of the Hoosier National Forest. Wilderness designation places this area in a special legal status (subject to the 1964 Wilderness Act). It is managed to preserve a natural condition and provide opportunities for solitude.

Since its designation as a wilderness, visitor use in the area increased to a point that significant damage was occurring. Special restrictions are in place to protect the wilderness character. Visitors to this special place are asked to follow these restrictions to lessen your impact and share responsibility in preserving this unique natural resource.
