I view the area as 4 distinct parts.
There's the private lodge, which I believe is mostly patronaged by nudists.
There's the developed and managed campground that charges a fee.
There's undeveloped and free camping all along the roadside.
There's an undeveloped/free campground a little past the managed campground.
The latter is where we camped. Used to be able to drive a car to each campsite, but forest management moved boulders and logs around to prevent that. Now there's a parking lot and campsites are reached by a short walk.
Fire was Sept 2020
Here's the parking lot July 2020
Here's boiling water for coffee because I forgot to bring a pot
Here's floating on the Breit where it enters Detroit lake, the day before the fire. Was supposed to be a sunny 95 degree day and ended up somewhere around 75 due to the smoke.
Here's the town of Detroit a couple weeks later, my friend's Mom's house.
