troutlover Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Hi Peter Will there be barriers installed to stop vehicles from driving along the bank of the river? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishteck Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 At this point in time there is little that can be done below the high water mark until we see how the flow of the water changes once the large instream rocks and the high flows this spring clear off a chunk of the gravel bar. But what we plan to do is to make it almost impossible to drive outside of the alloted parking area!!! We will be encouraging those that see any abuse of the site, report it to us so we can take appropriate action. It is important that everyone understands that the Policeman's site is PRIVATE LAND where access has been granted to the public for responsible recreational use. This site is not a four-wheeler playground. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porto Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Good morning, With the first phase of work being completed these past three days, has the big rock been taken out? If not I’m assuming and hoping it will be done on the 2nd round of construction. . thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutlover Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Maxwell posted a video on instagram of heavy equipment in the river and it looked to me that they were working on the rocks at the end of the Big berm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishteck Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 I am not in town this week, but an ammendment to the permit was made to meet the requirements. Our engineers informed that the required wool was completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagleflyfisher Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Had a look at launch yesterday, putting a boat in will be easier the opening to the river is a bit wider, rocks out front are gone. A bunch of Lego blocks have been dropped for future use. the alternate launch had a bit of a scrape off the top edge leading down too it. doesnt look like a bunch done yet, but it's a start. i was at the meeting the sat prior to the start of construction and ultimately the parking lot will be smoothed out, blocks placed to restrict driving all over the place etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
