Trask & Wilson - slide & bridge alert!

[troutdude]

Source: ODFW Weekly Recreation Report (11/18)

The Vanderzanden boat slide on the Wilson River (approximately MP 9 on Hwy 6) is closed until further notice. The slide was damaged by a fallen tree, and is in need of repairs. The Stones Road Boat slide (upper Trask River) is also closed, due to damage by vandalism. Repairs are expected to be made in the near future.

Yeah I think they have been that way for a couple weeks.
A tree falling is hard to prevent.. but Vandalizing a boat slide?? why??

It can be! I always start by picking up all the trash as I go in. Landowners see that and never say a word other than thanks!
