The late snow melt, heavy runoff and hazard tree removal has negatively impacted the condition of campground roads and spurs and increased the amount of work needed to get the campgrounds safely operational. Seasonal crews will begin cleanup work in those campgrounds next week.
Potato Patch, Alder and Elam Campgrounds are will be open by this Friday, for opening day of fishing season.
Potato Patch and Elam Campgrounds have drinking water, vault toilets and trash service. Alder campground has vault toilets and trash service. All three campgrounds are situated along beautiful Deer Creek, known for its fishing.
