Our camping trip had way less people this year than we previously had. Especially compared to last year.
5 nights in Lake Shasta. As the photos depicted, we had a baby, 3 dogs, teenagers and adults (and adults that acted like teenagers). Our (as described by a friend of mine) Drunk Fest was quite a bit mellower than previous years.
Usually, the campground is packed. Well, at least for the last 4 years we have been there, it has been packed. However, due to the low water level (lake is down over 140ft), the forest fires in the early part of summer and most likely the downturn in the economy, when we arrived on a Friday afternoon, there were only 10 of 110 campsites occupied. On Sat, there were only 5 occupied and on Monday, it was just us and another family of campers. The ranger told us that Labor Day weekend (the weekend after we left) had only 22 out of the 110 reserved. Labor Day is usually impossible to book.
Oh well, it was our gain. We had a great time and hopefully, we can be back for more next year.
