I've been wanting to walk the big cypress trail for a while now (the one that originates from big cypress visitor center and ends on I-75). I'd like to do it in two days with an overnight, I see on the map there are a couple of camps, historic popenhager camp, Oak Hill Camp. Has anyone hiked this trail / overnighted? I have no idea what I'm getting into other than mosquitoes, pythons, gators. Anything else I should know/prepare? Hammock vs tent? Dog or no dog? TIA
