Mushrooms are trying to grow, but we really need rain. There has been enough dew lately to make a few. Last 4 predicted rain events are not worth measuring, a few drops. It rained heavy close by though because the Falls is just roaring! That means the top of the ridge must have gotten substantial amounts of rain, where Moore's Lake is, to create such an outflow so late in August. Lots of times the Falls is just down to a trickle by now.
Anyone who can get into the deep forest will likely be able to pick happily and heartily.
Water level in the Madawaska River is a bit high. The riverfront tentsite is not completely dry (no standing water though) in one spot. I noticed a wet lawn mower tire a couple of very limited spots in the grounds when I cut grass yesterday. Yes, some of the grass here survived the drought. A lot of sites only had one cut this season because of the shortage of precipitation.
Cabins are maybe full for the long weekend; one is not confirmed (#4). Still a bunch of tent sites and a couple of serviced sites to be had.
So call, ,or fill in the form, and you too can be camping this weekend. Oh, a second 1/2 day canoe prize was claimed. Find the contest on the website, and enter to see if you are a winner.
