Winter camping at carson lake????

[DoubleD]

Does anyone know if the power sites on the peninsula at Carson lake are open all year round. Thinking about pulling the trailer up there for Easter long weekend to do some ice fishing. Thanks.

hey DD!!
i THINK so but not sure.
we did exactly what you guys are planning a few years ago and it was a blast!!!! camping in the winter is a whole new thing!!! really fun!! we tented tho so we needed big fires and lots of bloodline antifreeze!!!!

Hey Wildman, thanks a lot!:wave:

hey D.D.
no worries, sorry i don't know the current status.
you can probably find a phone number through alberta tourism or something....
good luck if you go!!!!! post result and pics!!!!
late season can be really fun as the trout head to shallow waters!!!!

hey wildman


I got the # for Carson lake and left a message a few days ago, but no response yet. I am not as hardcore as you and the tenting thing. BRRRRR!! I think we'll go no matter if theres power or not....i'll bring the generator, but I hate those things. Or maybe we'll do that bloodline antifreeze thing you were talking about:lol Take it easy.

no!!!!there closed in the winter months but you could park a camper at the end of the road...no power though

hey Bearbait


Thank you for your info. Are you talking about parking down on the peninsula? If they are not open do you think they will allow that...or are the fish cops gonna give me the boot? ANY THOUGHTS? Thanx

The folks at Carson Lake finally returned my call. The campsites on the peninsula are in fact OPEN with the power on. Taking the family out tomorrow for a couple or three days to try our luck!!:)
