Camping at Stony Point July 8-9, 2023 – meet at 12:00 for a 12:30 shuttle.

This trip included a rare chance to camp on scenic Worden Pond. The put-in was at Taylor's Landing for a trip down the Chipuxet River to Worden Pond. They spent the evening at the Stony Point Campsite – a small campsite on the northern shore.

The site was located on a rocky point with great views of the sunrise and sunset over the pond.
