  • Weird: There is no alcohol allowed and signs are posted everywhere. The state police drive through for enforcement. It wasn’t clear that it was absolutely minded, but there definitely weren’t a lot of PBR cans around.
  • Camper Types: The folks who camp here seem relatively serious- fishermen and hikers. It’s mostly tents and some number of groups. We saw a few small RVs and even another teardrop. Inevitably, there were some unprepared hipsters and many people who did not have the right gear for camping in 30 degree weather.
