I'll put it on my calendar and keep my fingers crossed. Being involuntarily unemployed really sucks for long range planning.

End of July is 3 months away. Let's not get carried with the gloom and doom.
I won't get into politics, let's just look forward to having a relaxing campout.
Hope to.see lots of campers .

We will just have to see by then so far crona restrictions haven't even let the kids go back to school yet and only barber shops hair care joints are opened back up no food places yet. and state campgrounds are Wyoming residents only so far.. Yellowstone and grand teton are still shut and Jackson hole is still under a,separate shelter at home rule...govenor says he's going to start slowly in phases re- opening..but the wind river reservations just growing rapidly with crona cases...have seen Zippo on national Forrest restrictions yet... yet no idea if they are going to reopen normaly when the snow melts out in june???????....so far its,14 day quarteene for out of staters...so yea pray hard that we get to go by end of july..most of us already are going crazy in Riverton nones really staying home though and nones wearing a mask as in Riverton but I guess they are in lander...so it's a wild card so far..?????........slow..

Mike, you have to be the worst salesman I ever met. If Wyoming is not open by the end of July, there will not be any country left to travel in. States with a lot larger population then WY are already starting to open Parks. Relax, take a deep breath and invite the people to join you in Pinedale for a great weekend. By July everyone will want to get out a see one of the most beautiful area's in the Country. Join us in Pinedale, we'll leave a light on for ya.

It's now on my calendar. I'm hoping for a banner year. A lot of the early events have been canceled. Just maybe there will be a whole lot of somebodies hankerin' for a git-together and they will come to Wyoming by default. It would be grand to pack that beautiful piece of God's handiwork with newcomers.

I'M TOTALLY stoked for this event. This just might be the event of the year!

Thanks Will

Appreciate the screenshot. BUT ..........recreation.gov still has New Fork Lake group area reserved in my name. RESERVATION HAS NOT BEEN CANCELED AND NO REFUND HAS BEEN ISSUED.
July 30 is still a few days away. Don't. jump off a cliff yet .
Hope too see all of you campers that want to attend at New Fork Lake.

Well, I'm going by two things; what I saw on the .gov website and my personal experience of having received a cancelation and refund for a group site reservation that I made for a site here in the Jemez of NM.

We cannot make it to WY this year but I do hope it works out for those who can.

[sagebrush]

Yes, New Fork Lake group area is currently closed. If one was to scroll on down page it states area is open May 21 2020 to Sept. 08 2020 peak season and Sept 09 to Sept 30 2020 non peak season.. I have not received a refund or notice of cancellation. Hope so see you all there.

If I were a betting man I bet things will open up by July. Don't call this dead yet. The fat lady has not yet sung.

[Woodbutcher]

I believe you're right Rob. We have a small group that is going to try and make the gathering this year. As long as the State is open and people are going to show up, we should be there. New Forks is in a great spot and the price of camping is cheap, can't beat that. Hope to see you in a few months.

Looking at various webcams, the snow in the big country seems to be melting nicely.
I have a fresh chain for the saw, we can convert beetlekill to firewood. Things are looking up .
Hope to see you all at New Fork Lake end of July.
