Arrived Fri morning, got a spot with a picnic table. There's a trailer parked near a camper, both long term. Trailer turned on generator evening, a bit noisy. The river water is quite cold, so no swimming. Maybe fishing is okay. The road noise drops off to almost nothing once it gets dark, so sleep was okay. Area is quite level.

Fills up quickly and it seems like it's with people from the area. A few picnic tables. Two roads on either side do create some noise as the logging mill isn't far down the road. It's late September so it gets down to 4 degrees Celsius

There's now signage that overnight camping is prohibited. And apart from the garbage left around would have been a good spot
