To be honest, I didn't look. I was passing it on my way out while my knee was at its worst. I really didn't see any sign that there were specific sites. Instead, the area was simply a large area by the wide spot in the creek/river that had the vast majority of the underbrush cleared out. They also appeared to building a new latrine there.
The fish in the creek have no fear of humans as fishing is forbidden and I presume visitors feed them. Whenever some fish spotted me, the tended to swim nearer to my side of the bank and get a bit shallower, the various sunfish species in particular.
As I said previously, its at the top of my list of places to go back to. I should have a few day break in mid-October and I hope the weather is decent enough to allow me to spend them there, if I don't get back before then.
