Oh by the way the ramp below the dam is no longer useable, No signs no warning. I knew they were going to work on it but would have thought maybe a sign on swan falls road maybe. Drove all the way to the dam and ended up unloading right into the river about 4 miles down, Surprised I was able to get the boat out.

What did they do? I assume you mean the dirt ramp at the base of the dam.

they are improving the ramps above and below the damn it was marked friday afternoon at victory and swan falls road and the ramp and dock above the ramp were still in use above the damn friday you can take victory and get to celebration park if you want to fish below the damn but you have to pay it is a nice ramp so it worth the money plus your truck and trailer are safer

For where I fish I don't need to run graveyard and all the other bad spots so going to celebration is just a waste of gas, They look like they are dredging out the section right below the ramp. Probably removing the little island. But how about a sign in like maybe kuna or on the main road going in

My understanding is that they are going to develop some very nice camp sites, install additional toilets and have a 24/7 person on site to stop all the trash, illegal dumping, and general mayham that happens down below the damn on the weekends. When done it should be a very nice place to camp and take a family.
