That is a beautiful campsite Gordon and I assume that is your Scamp? Where is this place and does it have a name?

Yes that is my Scamp from last year, and I plan to be back there (at a nearby site) in a few days.

Of course the more people that know about this wonderful State Park on the St, Lawrence river, the more competition there is for the limited reservations. But I can give you a hint.. check the filename of the photo

Very jealous Gordon, thanks for the tip too, enjoy your time!

We have been to that campground Gordon. Did you do any others along the river. We drove through a couple to the east while we were in the area, but haven't been back to camp at any.

Just have to put in a plug for our AZ state park reservation system...

Last week I made a spring break reservation for 3 nights. Made it early because it's peak season- spring training and desert bloom. A day later I realized I had a prior commitment and needed to move the reservation 2 days later. Couldn't figure out how to change the reservation online, so I called the reservation number. A very friendly person answered immediately and made the change quickly. No hassle, no additional charge, same site. She even double-checked whether I was aware the site had no hook-ups. Arizona's reservation system gets high marks in my book.




Gotta love AZ state parks! $20/night for a spacious primitive site with free hot showers, and one $5 reservation fee. Beautiful location at the base of the Superstition Mountains. Hope to see some other fiberglass eggs at Lost Dutchman SP in mid-March!

Great to hear kudos where warranted, Jon. 👍All too often we just hear about the things that go wrong instead, and we know life for the most part is all good.
