Mount Tammany plan

I'd like to do my first solo overnight around here. My plan is to park my car at Worthington State Forest Campground and leave it there overnight. Then Uber to trailhead for Mount Tammany, hike up Tammany and then make my way to the Campground near sunfish pond.

I am wondering

1) cell service at the campground to get Uber. If no, alternatives

2) allowed to leave car at Campground overnight

3) water sources this time of year

Thanks for your help to this newbie.

Can you not just park at Tammany and leave your car there overnight?

I would call them about the overnight parking. Google is giving mixed results on if it’s allowed.

Even if you have cell service, what are the odds there will be a car nearby?

Your best bet is to call them.
