Campsites 46-54 will be closed for the 2010 season. This area is closed pending logging operations of dead trees that are standing and lying on the ground in the campsites causing unsafe conditions.
Many trees were cut down in 2008 and 2009. The campground looks different but there are still trees left near each campsite.
