Can we add photos of a campsite? Peninsula campgrounds at FSRA isn’t featured on this site and I want to add pictures of my site. Thanks
Hi Mckenzie,
Generally we use ‘in-house’ photographers to maintain consistency, quality and accuracy. However, we do accept photos from camper/photo enthusiasts from time to time. The photos will need to be in a horizontal format and named with the correct campsite number. You can email us a few at campranger@campsitephotos.com. We will check them out and post if okay! Thank you!!
