Furthest I have ever traveled to tent camp was Colorado Springs, CO. I live just south of Atlanta. We spent 12 days there. First day was rough, LOTS of rain. Not fun setting up in a downpour. I spend most of my time camping in the foothills of the Appalachia in north Georgia though. As of now, I can only manage long weekend trips with my wife (she's a city girl). But we go with three little ones, from 6 months to 5 years old
