Park
Manager
Walla Walla District Corps of Engineers
The park manager for the Clarkston office of the Corps of
Engineers would like to invite you to visit one of the recreation
areas that our staff manages for you on Lower Granite Lake, Lake Bryan
and the upper reaches of Lake West, all on the Lower Snake River.
There is a wide array of outdoor activities available at our
recreational areas, everything from a peaceful walk along a tree-lined
path on the Clearwater& Snake River National Recreation Trail, to
fishing for sturgeon at Lower Granite Dam. There are also
opportunities for camping, picnicking, wildlife viewing, boating and
hunting for deer, upland birds and waterfowl.
Both Little
Goose and Lower Granite Dam feature fish viewing rooms that allow you an
up close look at the many species of fish in the Lower Snake
River. Lower Granite Lock and Dam also has a Visitor Center that
offers movies, inter-active displays, brochures, guided tours, and a
friendly and helpful staff. The Visitor Center is open seven days
a week, 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Small group and family tours of the
powerhouse and Juvenile Fish Facility are available upon request at the
Visitor Center during the summer season. For
larger groups, such as school classes, business groups, etc, please call (509)
751-0240 for more information.
Due to increased risk of
wildfires during the summer months, there is a seasonal ban on open
fires June 10th through October 10th. Charcoal and gas barbecue
grills are welcome year-round.
Please browse through our
web-site and take advantage of the maps and charts that we have here to
help you make your plans. If you need any additional help, please
contact me at the address, phone number or E-mail address given
below. If you have already visited one or more of these areas, I
would be very pleased to get your comments and suggestions on how well we
met your needs and what we could do to improve your visit next time.
