there's one place I've been meaning to go to called Mosquito Lake near Smith AB. ATV friendly camping, heard lots of good things about it. it's 200-ish kms from the city, 2 and a half hour drive.

had a spot reserved for may long last year, but one of our crew had a death in the family so we cancelled. a friend of mine was there for Canada day weekend...said they had a quad parade and fireworks from a raft out on the lake. they have loonie showers, firewood available if you don't want to go out and cut your own from where the forest fire went thru a few years back. huge group area that will fit up to 8 large toyhaulers.

The Anchor Inn resort you are talking about is on the east end of fawcett lake right? I dont think quads ae allowed in the campground on the west end (old provincial campground).

Chump Lake Campsite, about 22km East of Boyle on HWY 663. It is a first come first serve campsite. If Campsite is full you can camp for free anywhere you can find a spot once you turn North off of HWY 663. Lots of good quading for all levels.

I thought they closed the random camping in the area. Last time I was there there was a huge berm that you couldn't get over with trailer. Is it open again?

Go to chump and north buck every year to go riding (have friends with lake lots) guys still camp in the crown land areas, and I have seen a few people that roughed it around the berms.

Anchor Inn Resort is on the west end and they allow quadding from campsite if you camp at the resort , and yes if you camp at the provincial park you have to trailer out of park.
