Hi Peg,
The trail is open but does have some closures still from the flood sustained last year. You will have to detour around the areas marked as they are impassable for the most part, most use the highway shoulder to get around the detours.

As far as camping, the towns along the trail have city parks available for camping but as to their open status, you will have to call ahead.
Enjoy your trip!
