The whole reason for camping at Elk Island was so we could watch the Meteor Shower in a 'dark sky preserve' and it was totally worth it. We took a walk around midnight down towards the lake and enjoyed the sky view and then returned to our site and all lay down to watch the skies. We saw a satellite too :)
