When we got to Nickle Lake Regional Park last Friday, we could see that there’d been a big downpour and there was a lot of standing water in some of the lower lying areas of the campground.
When we got to our site, there was a bit of water in our site but nothing major and last year when there were similar rains, the water had come close to our site but hadn’t reached it so we figured it wasn’t a big deal.
At least until we went to visit the neighbours behind us and they showed us a picture of what our site had looked like only a couple hours earlier. Apparently an inch of rain fell in about fifteen minutes completely flooding our (and many nearby sites) but luckily all the water was contained to the lower lying areas (by our firepit and in the walkway between our site and our neighbour’s) so no damage to our camper or anything in our shed.
Still a pretty wild sight!
