It is pretty wet down here still. There are dry camp grounds in the Castle Mountain/Waterton area, but you walk into the bush a little ways and there is still lots of snow.

I know it rained yesterday and all, but firefighters and equipment from across the province just finished converging on the big fires that recently made headline news. It's not that unreasonable that they don't want to risk more fires when men are tired and equipment is displaced. Not to mention the fact that just because the ground is wet doesn't mean the trees are.
