Park was pretty much empty due to the FLORISTON fire just to the E-NE. A lot of no shows or cancelations? At any rate,had good time with park pretty much to myself and dog Ripley. Nice weather with a fair chill in the morning. Had 2 leave early for unplanned issues at home which preempted a more extended great time. On the negative side though, some dirtbaggs from site 85 apparently moved the very large heavy picnic table from 83 to 85 while partying and failed to return it prior to their leaving? This rude and thoughtless action resulted in me having 2 make and break camp from or off of the ground which is actually a little difficult 4 me due to my age and just being a little broken overall. Hope the table is back 4 my next trip? Talked 2 Host, Daniel?, so the issue should be resolved. Park was well maintained at this time and Daniel was blowing pine needles off the sites and roadside like he was enjoying it 4 2 of the days I was there.
