Not sure what to think at this time . . .

As others, thanks for your work schweady. I did not want to hijack, so forward looking, will the trend continue as long as the weather holds? When I last looked at the reservation site things were busy until mid September, then slowed down. The usual return to school pattern can not be counted on, but what are fall season trippers thinking?

We've actually booked a second trip for the year, September 19th out of Little Gabbro. The SO loved her first trip so much that I HAVE to upgrade equipment so we can take a second trip.... Dang it...

I was also hoping that this year's Sept 16th trip I have planned would guarantee low numbers. Alas, usage apparently doesn't really drop off the cliff until that final week or so.


Of course, if this graph of last year's September numbers were to also include August 2019, it would need to show a range of daily reservations *twice* as high as September's maximum. So, there is that.

I have a EP62 permit for 9/19/20 and hope I can find a site open on Clearwater or West Pike. My second hope is that the campsite is clean and the pit toilet isn't overflowing.
Boy I hope Canada opens up!
