Park ranger Tom Kain said the Division of Parks has re-opened Chilkoot Lake State Wayside to accommodate fall visitors. The campground will be open, including restrooms and dumpster service, through Oct. 20.
Crowds of anglers from the Yukon Territory are expected this weekend for Canada’s Thanksgiving weekend. As many as 50 visitors were along the Chilkoot River last weekend, most of them coho fishing.
