Site #63 - $30 n/s, cell (Note: first come until June 15 except May long)
We weren't able to camp in our favourite spot at Kettle River Provincial Park as that loop was closed due to the flooding. There was water across the road and one of the sites was under water. By day 2 the water had receded and I expect the loop will be open by the weekend.
The majority of the campground survived the fire. There is burn out near the entrance and the old maintenance compound is gone. Portions of the upper loop were badly burned. Of course those have become the 'first come' sites.
The 'best' sites are all 'Reserve' sites requiring the added reserve fee during busy season. This time of year we don't have to worry. All sites are first come.
The hummingbirds have been a real source of entertainment. We noticed them on our arrival and we put out our feeder. The place is now humming with them! They are very aggressive and one pair appears to have declared this their territory. They vigorously chase and attack all other hummers that come near the feeder. More than once we've found ourselves ducking as they swoop over our shoulders. Also, if you wear a red shirt, you will likely find yourself nose to beak with one of them as they check you out!
We enjoyed our two nights at the park, rode a portion of the Kettle Valley Rail Trail and today we are Osoyoos bound.
