<p>The recreation.gov link above has the most information on the closure of Highway 70 at this time. The Plumas National Forest webpage has no information about the campground closure. It appears that ongoing highway construction on State Route 70 is forcing the closure of the campground through June 30. The three other NFS campgrounds near Belden are also closed through June. Spanish Creek Campground, closer to 89, is showing availability but it is in the construction zone as I understand it…</p>

Spanish Creek Campground, closer to 89, is showing availability but it is in the construction zone as I understand it today. While there is a chance that the road and Hallsted campground could reopen in time for our TrainSpotting campout, the way things have been going on 70 this year and last, I wouldn't bet on it. So, as the organizer, I say we pull it off the calendar for June. And that's exactly what I am going to do. If you want to keep your reservation, that's up to you. The email from recreation.gov spells out your options. Maybe we'll try later in the season.</p> So what's the plan?

<p>So what's the plan? I'm game for holding on to my reservations until closer to the date to see if they open 70 in time. Thoughts??</p>

<p>I just got a message from recreation.gov that Hallsted will be closed from March 17 (today to June 30. No reason was given. </p>
<p>What's the plan? should we hold tight and see if the park opens before that, or should we cancel our reservation and make other plans? Either way, I don't think we'll lose any money in the process.</p>

<p>Thanks for the thought. We're still six months out on this so maybe not save anything just yet. I'll know more about my 2023 plans around the end of Feb or so. I was even thinking of hangin at Hallsted for that following Mon and Tues as well. Lots of depends goin on there. I remain in spirit. Peace, ~RL</p>

<p>Regis, do you want me to hold my half-a-space for you? That way, if the campground fills up, you'll still have a space. and if you decide to give this one a miss, let me know and I'll free it up again.</p>

<p>It is a good launching pad for all kinds of road trips. It would be great to see you Regis. I am dubless, too, and I'm in 16. I will update the list when there are a few more takers.</p>

<p>I'm keeping this on the back burner. It's a good one. I might use this GTG as a stopping point if a continued road trip to Montana works out. I won't book a site until more is known. There's a lot of, depends, goin on with this. ~RL, Dubless</p>
