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 was in the crowsnest provincial Sustainable Resources admin building and the reason that the fire ban extends this far south is not because of conditions on the ground but because 95% of the resources and personnel are up north trying to get on top of the situation. IF a fire were to break out here they would be royally messed up.
I am quite certain that if Northern Alberta were under control it would be status quo down here and camping would be fun again.
