- Discover (state park) Pass is now required at the Dryden Dam put in. - Cashmere takeout parking lot has been paved. - Drunkard's Drop rockfall from 2 winters ago is much reduced. A few large blocks remain on river left that affect the left channel, but the huge pourover center mass is gone. Hopefully, the trinity waves some day will return . - At 5k, the early season is on.

Yeah, that was a surprise for this year. Definitely have a Discover Pass if you park at the dam. Still Steelhead season so they are checking now for sure and expect they will be from here out. Gate is also gone. Wondering if it is just managed by the State now or if they bought it from Chelan County PUD. A State Park would be nice with a play park instead of a low head dam. Many of us have dreamed about that for years...
Paved parking lot makes changing at your car so much nicer and bare feet are so much happier!!! ------------- H2Ohta |

Oh, there is also no more turn around for trailers. Looks like trailers do the full loop around the field/playground. It also looks like possible plumbing for a bathroom where the turn around used to be... ------------- H2Ohta |
