Has anyone camped at Butte Lake since the alert went out that the campground flush restrooms do not have water and are being repaired? Are the day use area flush restrooms also affected? How have the vault toilets been (crowded and gross?)? We are camping there this Wed-Sun to watch the Perseids meteor shower and are a bit concerned that there are only a few vault toilets for a campground of this size during peak season.

We emailed nps asking about the water situation. They said the spigots still have potable water, but we haven't heard back about the status of the repair or the day use area restrooms.

Thanks everyone for your help and observations:)

Today I made a detour to pick something up on my bike commute downtown and rode on 28th by Sutter hospital, which I'm familiar with by car but not by bike. It seemed like the best way to hook up with P Street. But my goodness I did not expect the idiocy I saw today. Maybe I'm spoiled with my usual T Street/P Street commute, but I was only on 28th for a couple blocks so what could go wrong?

A car in front of me in the driving lane decided to stop to pull over right before the intersection on a green light, and parked so that their right tires were on the bike lane line right in front of me. No turn signal, no hazard lights. I came to a stop because that's sketchy. A few seconds pass. The light is still green and I'm getting annoyed. Cars are in the other lanes, so I'm not willing to pass on the left. Then, surprise surprise, someone gets out on the passenger side in scrubs, on their way to work. They didn't even acknowledge me waiting there a few feet away. Then the car creeps forward toward the green light, a few seconds to go, but still in the bike lane. All trust was gone and I wasn't sure if they would turn right without a signal, but I started to move as they moved and while they braked on the yellow light, I zoomed forward and away from that madness.​ Does Sutter hospital not have a goshdang loading zone? Is this kind of thing a one-off in that area? Could I have avoided this and taken a better street south to get to P Street (from K Street)?

Going back go the title, I'm wondering if anyone has seen any change in driver behavior since it came out in the news about AI-enhanced enforcement, which I understand is focused on school zones. It's hard for me to gauge because I haven't had an issue on my usual routes. But if I was driving I think I would be a little extra careful about my parking and definitely not just stop right before an intersection, blocking both driving and bike lane. The audacity!
