Ferry County, WA...Anyone camped here?

Do any of you have experience camping either at the airstrip or at adjacent Curlew Lake State Park?

Thanks...

Re: Ferry County, WA...Anyone camped here?

I didn't fly in, but I few years back camped in the state park when we used it as a fire camp. I remember it being pretty nice, not a very far walk to the lake, decent shade, nice camp sites etc. Also its not very far into town, but usually hot enough you will want to bum a ride.

Also, the park rangers sound airplane friendly: from WA ST PKS "The airport is just east of the park. If you fly in, the park will try to help transport your gear. Call (509) 775-3592, and park personnel will work with you."

Thanks for that good news. I emailed the airport mgr and he also seemed airplane friendly.
