Friend sent us this. So would you not swim in the entire lake or just not that beach. The beach pictured is the one in the warning.

Rest of the lakes are not covered by the warning, and AHS knows there's more beaches. so the rest of the lake is as clean as normal.
I left gull lake and went to windermere. that's a cleaner lake.
Anyone want c-76 at Chinook for Aug 21-23? I think I cannot use. Will know in a few days.
Castle Falls this weekend was great, we were in the A-40+ loop, pretty quiet compared to the other ones. The main falls were an absolute zoo every day, if you had booked a site to show up on saturday or sunday, i dont think you could have got a trailer into the site. A great campground, there are some really private sites with huge trees on the back loops that are nice.
Couple notes -
- no potable water on site, we almost ran out.
- no on-site fire sales. Guy from Beaver Mines was driving in randomly twice a day to sell.
- dumping station either in lundbreck (free) or beauvius lake ($5).
I think @ExtraSlow is intentionally underselling how great Chinook Lake is. We were there Friday-Monday in A-loop and it was awesome.
Oh it's great. Really great. I just have personal and work problems that might mean i can't use the site. I will be pretty annoyed that that happens.
I now have 2 people in line for the campsite, so I'll try to figure my life out, and get back to people in the order they contacted me. Should know this week hopefully.
I'm keeping the Chinook camping site. the alternative event that was going to keep me busy has been cancelled due to Covid-19. In not really related news, I may be at chinook the weekend prior too, Aug 14-16. Any beyonders who are around either weekend can find my truck and come say hello. Bring a cold beer or 12.

Paid off the saw in the first haul, minus the gas. Finding wood is a bit of a bitch
Hey there! Creator of Camp Alert here! Thanks for mentioning us. I'm happy to say we've found thousands of campsite cancellations for our users over the last two months and we keep finding more every day. We've just recently added RV options to look for RV campsites as well. Let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to answer them.
Glad you found some wood.
Hey sabad, creator of Camp Alert here. I'm sorry to hear you didn't get what you expected from the service.
At this moment, yes we only email you once when the site is available. The reason is that we check for sites every three minutes and if we kept checking for you, you'd get an email every 3 minutes until the site was taken.
We are planning on adding a user dashboard where you can monitor your alerts and set different settings on them to suit your needs. At the moment, we dont have user accounts so there is no way to do that. But feel free to email us and we can modify your alerts for you manually. I've also emailed you a free coupon code for our service for two alerts.
Cheers,
Adam
Hi Brent,
Can you explain how it didn't work? Did you not get an email? That may be because the campground did not become available in time.
It sends and email only once for all accounts. We used to have a free option and those users who made free alerts in the past are still being watched for.
Can you email me at [email protected] and let me know your email and which days exactly you chose?
Anyone want a site at Chinook this weekend? Because of a miscommunication with a friend, I have this site to sell:
Chinook PRA, Site A-1 (Pull-through site, over 60') Friday August 14-Sunday August 16 (2 nights)
Loop A looked well-treed and quiet when I was through there last time. Chinook is a great place with a beautiful hike around the lake, and fishing as well.
Cost to me was 26x2 + 12 = $64. If you slide me $60 TODAY it's yours, otherwise I'll cancel.
