    Update #714325

    I followed up with park ranger today. He’s looking forward to our group.

    Water in the campground froze so the only water refill is connected to park office At interpretive center.

    If you self register after hours (open 10-4) then they want us to use the unplowed campsites or squeeze in with other hammockers.

    We can have 3 hammocks per site. Or 4 if theee are enough trees. Solo peeps are welcome to wander off into unplowed sites.

    Plenty of wood at the park office for purchase or you can stop at quick trip on the way in. They check for wood certificates so make sure you have the certificate with the wood.
    Qwick trip 1711 Highway 210, Carlton, MN 55718

    State park pass is $7 per day or like $30 ish bucks for the year.

    I heard from a friend that there is a record amount of snow there this winter (2nd most recorded). The snow level in her yard is 4' deep in the low spots. Drifts are deeper yet.
    The game is the best teacher.

    Got the chicken while rice soup made. Still have to pack my gear. Think I'll bring the sled to shlep stuff to the campsite. I'm lazy that way. I have a 4-gallon water container also. Should I bring that along for the group to use?
    I should be leaving Perham about 10am tomorrow as I can't drop off the dog until @9:30. My co-workers think I'm crazy to be doing this. Looking forward to meeting you all.
