Thanks for your feedback, Nancy and I’m sorry this was disappointing. I understand, especially since the cancellation feature was so useful.
Unfortunately, that feature is no longer available due to factors outside our control. BaseCamp continues to focus on helping campers choose the right site with detailed photos and planning tools.
I appreciate your support over the years and have fully refunded your $27.

Sorry about the confusion — the cancellation feature is no longer available.
You still have full access to our 200,000+ campsite photos and all core features. I have gone ahead and issued you a full refund.

Yes, we’re tracking the Fish Creek renumbering and will update site numbers as soon as they’re released.
Photos and details will remain accessible during the transition.

These are cancellation alerts, not live availability.
Popular sites can be rebooked very quickly, so checking the timestamp and acting fast makes a big difference.
