Civil War camps

[beetleruss]

My Chief and I are looking to do an overnight hunt in Tennessee soon and are looking for a camp to legally hunt at. Not too concerned if it's considered hunted out or not but looking for some areas to hunt, preferably in eastern part of state. Any ideas?

good luck most places have been sweeped. ill give you a few locations that are on public property
1. union calvary camp- morristown tn behind the old morristown black college to get there you have to go up carriger St and park at water tower. you can find relics anywhere between the water tower and ball field DO NOT GO IN THROUGH THE FRONT YOU WILL BE ARRESTED going through the water tower is the only way, this will be your best option for a night hunt
2. confederate artillary camp, behind lincoln heights school- morristown tn in order to access this area you will need to contact the HCBOE and go on a weekend you will have to park behind the school and walk up a hill. there you will find an old roadbed that leads up to a 1923 dated cemetary. the pay dirt here is highly debated among locals so you really just have to search around for it
3. union artillary camp- morristown tn--- literally on the hill opposite of the above stated ive yet to go over there as its in a neighborhood
4. battle ground- south cumberland street. right inbetween the 2 above stated only it was a battle ground
5.railroad. ETn,Va,Ga, RR ran right behind south cumberland st and was built in 1853 and was a way of transportation out of m town to asheville and beyond youll have to ask the various Local biz' for access. shouldnt have any issues though i never have
6. (unkown) camp.. martin luther king JR public park-- morristown tn its a public park but you will want to search around the tree lines and back of the park along and in those woods. ive found some mini's there before
