In its new mission to extract every dollar possible out of park visitors, California State Parks is pricing itself out of reach of many, starting with young families, city kids and young adults. So is the Department of Fish and Wildlife, which charges the highest-priced fishing licenses in America and yet is providing the public with less than ever this summer. Ten years ago, it cost $2 to park and $12 to camp at state parks. Now it’s $10 to park and $35 and up to camp. State Parks wants to add electronic self-pay stations, where you pay by credit card. That would allow them to add new pay sites without adding staff, and also add specialty fees, such as for “premium campsites.”

In San Diego visiting. Crossed to Coronado and drove south to Imperial beach state park. Only wanted to hang out an hour or so. The young lady said it still cost 10 bucks to park. I paid 10 bucks to get sunburned in an hour. The lot was practically empty, so there you go.
BTW, the place is awesome, as far as Pacific beaches. Watch the warships from the beach, as they depart San Diego Harbor to do what ever it is they do every day.
One last one:
From Road Side America link about your Devilboat:
Is it a sign of the End Times when submarines start surfacing in Idaho? Another landlocked Naval vessel is in South Dakota.
SSN 688?
The Original LA class?
Holy crap do I feel old.
We are everywhere LOL.
That lake is 5th deepest in U.S.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Pend_Oreille
Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced: pond-o-ray) is a lake in the northern Idaho Panhandle, with a surface area of 148 square miles (380 km2). It is 43 miles (69 km) long, and 1,150 feet (350 m) deep in some regions, making it the fifth deepest in the United States.
Yeah, that’s true, most of the shoreline is unpopulated (must be hard to believe for people in different parts of the country).
Continuing the travelogue...
Schweitzer Mountain Ski Resort just outside of Sandpoint, ID is excellent also. Sandpoint is an excellent town to stay in and is right on the lake shore (lake often partially frozen during ski season — not sure if it ever freezes across the entire surface).
That’s when you have UFO sightings
An, I bet it’s beautiful up there.
Always think of Mark Fuhrman and Sandpoint.
Funny.
That was my 1st thought as well.
For a bit more you can stay in some dump hotel and walk in the park.
You get a sense os privacy, hot shower, hot coffee, etc.
Still, I’d pay it because I want to sleep outside. I love being outside.
I can see how strictly city types would find the $35 campsite fee a barrier. Particularly if you don’t feel compelled to camp and deal with the inconveniences of sleeping bag bunking.
$60 bucks to go fishing and the wardens aren’t using the monies to replenish stocks?
Yer KuhRayZee and a thief.
I wouldn’t find a fishing tag for $60 bucks onerous if I knew the monies they ask god were used for the stated purpose.
There’s a sub outside Muskogee, OK as well. Always thought it was funny to drive past.
And Sarah Palin. She was born in Sandpoint, Idaho.
Arco might make some sense as the burial place for a nuclear sub, as it was the first town in the US fully powered by nuclear energy.
