Park closures

Just saw that Campendium is maintaing listings of closures for both the US and Canada.
At this moment the US list is showing an error message but the Canadian one is working, and the US one will likely be back up soon.
Thumbnails on the right side of their homepage take you to the closures list.
Maybe it will help a few of you that are having to move.
  • Here's a direct link to the "closures" page at the aforementioned website. I believe it's got updates from members, so the caveat is it may not be 100% accurate, but it seems to be close.
    I hope they don't mind?

    Not true. I just today rescheduled a reservation thru recreation.gov to a date later in the year as my May COE reservation has been cancelled due to park closure.


    I also just used recreation.gov to make reservations at 2 different USFS CG in Colorado...in September...and one of them had every campsite open, 18 hours after the booking window opened. Last weekend of the season for both.

  • There's few county owned CG's near us that're still open.
    That will probably change.
