Fishem Lake Sept 2020

Found this drone video of the strip at Fishem Lake (60 miles north of Whistler, BC) from last September. Looks to still be in good shape (and that D9 cat is still midway on the south side). Never seen so many people there in the campsite, in fact first time I've seen any. Gonna drop in the next few weeks to look for myself.

Please do. I flew over about 6 weeks ago and it looked good from altitude. I did stop at Gun lake which is in good shape although a little soft and sandy.

Friend of mine was in about 2 weeks ago with his 185 and the strip was good. Watch out for tricky winds on short final. 182 and other airplane parts in the bush and on the cabin wall from people not paying attention to wind, temp and density altitude.
