No, I have not heard anything to the contrary. So far as developed
campgrounds in NF, most in Washington do not open in normal years until 1
May. So that is still to come. BLM lands are also still open, and camping
is allowed. BLM campgrounds in Washington tend to be relatively primitive,
for those for whom that matters. I prefer it, actually. NP facilities,
including on Lake Roosevelt, are closed.
