New Trail Open

The new hiking trail to the top of Bridalveil Falls
was opened this past weekend!

A big “thanks” goes out to the graduate students

from Oregon State University Department of
Fisheries and Wildlife who helped build the new
trail. Approximately 25 college students assisted
with the construction. The new trail is approx. 3
miles in length and includes six wooden foot
bridges. A new public restroom facility has also
been constructed at the trailhead.

The trail dedication concluded with a special Hiker’s Day involving members from
several hiking clubs in the region. High school students from our local Bridalveil High
School were taught how to maintain the trail

Don’t Forget Your Permit

Have you renewed your fishing permit for this year? Be aware that troopers of the
Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division are patrolling our area. A truck was
recently stopped with four subjects who were seen angling in a closed area of the creek
flowing into the lake. While approaching the vehicle the trooper noticed a salmon in the
bed and a cooler. Subsequent checks revealed several steelhead were in the cooler. The
subjects confessed that the salmon and steelhead had been caught from the creek. Neither
the steelhead nor salmon were on the harvest cards. Two of the four subjects were cited
for Failure to Validate Harvest Card. All subjects were warned for angling in a closed
area. Don’t let this happen to you! Make sure to renew your permit and validate your
harvest cards with your catch.

Camping All Year

The weather is beautiful all year and the temperature is surprisingly warm for most of
seasons. Average water temperatures fluctuate from a chilly 46 degrees F in February to
an inviting 80 degrees F in August. Don't let cold weather at home scare you away,
because fishing in our area is fabulous all year!
