Heimerman Point Campground at Cheney State Park was evacuated Saturday evening as lake levels rose, according to a social media post shared by officials. The evacuation followed concerns tied to changing lake conditions.
Officials say the campground is closed until further notice. They are monitoring other areas around the lake as conditions develop and will close additional locations if safety becomes a concern.
Visitors are being directed to avoid the affected campground while officials assess conditions and determine when the area can reopen.
