    So 26 trucks so far
    Gold Lake has 16 campsites
    July is peak season

    Sounds like a recipe for another shitshow!

    Yeah but a few will bail and we can get like 3 trucks per site. Im hoping to make it up thursday and I hope a few others will too. That way we can try to get a few sites before the crowds show up friday. Im hoping everyone camps July 4th and are to tired to go out this weekend.

    Never seen anyone there to enforce it. We will do what we can... Hopefully it all works out.

    ^This. For those inclined for more solitude, lots of dispersed camp spots.

    It can be the plan. Prerunners wont make it. and it would be nice to have at least one camp spot by the lake so we have water access

    I just came back Saturday from Gold Lake. The campsites were pretty much all taken by Friday, good thing I got there Thursday. Weather was an amazing 90's and perfect for swimming in the lake.

    Yeah it was the snake loop trail done CW. The photo shows the toughest section, but photos never do justice. So much fun!
