Hi, Dennis~ I was wondering if you knew anything about the Maquoketa dam area being turned into a private-property camping area? I drove down there the other day, just to look at the dam and river, and there were no trespassing signs posted all over. I take it that entire area is not public use area any more? If so, I will miss going there.
