[Hosts appear to be gone for the season, septic system cleaning truck visited 
in prep for shut down of cg for winter, main gate still open up by the highway 
for drive-in (not sure for how long.  A few puddles remain in Crow Creek along 
the north edge of the campground and out along the Mourning Dove Trail 
northeast of the north gate.  Lots of grasshoppers, lacewings, small dung 
beetles, wasps, etc., still active in the warm weather.  Saw one winter form 
Question-Mark butterfly.  Loose herd of about 25 Pronghorn in the big open area 
north of the primitive campsites along the Mourning Dove Trail.]
