      Hi, I would recommend bringing a filter, I discovered little orange particles floating around in the water when I was there, also did not have any filtration setup which limited my use (washing dishes and bathing only).

      Hello, since this is crown land there are no campsites, the fun in coming here is that you can find your own place to camp at Abraham Lake. The main section is called the Abraham Lake viewpoint, that's where most campers enter and exit the lake but there are a lot of spots in other areas of the lake as well.

      Hello, I have a DJI Mavic Mini. It weighs 249g and therefore you don't need a drone certification to fly as it's under 250g. As for the area, it's crown land and not in a National or Provincial Park so you're good to fly!
