Are you referring to Westward Ho? If you are, unless things have changed, its a pretty tame place. I camped there for several years, and aside from the odd rowdy and softball tournament, it was pretty controlled. I can count on one hand the amount of times the RCMP had to be called down from Sundre. Of course, this place was trying to appeal to families as they sold seasonal/yearly campsites, but things could have changed.
I know this weekend, I opted to go to a more low-key campground, past Mount Kidd towards Peter Lougheed P.P., since I personally don't go camping to watch some morons ruin the wilderness. To me its about communing with nature, cracking a beer (or several), chopping firewood, putting up tents and tarps and general manly pursuits while breathing in the fresh mountain air and relaxing. Clearly some people think that the wilderness is theirs to destroy, and I think thats appalling.
