It's very similar to
Slab Creek Reservoir in its design, but much easier to get to
and just as picturesque. There's an easy walk from the gate to the
cache along a 1/1.5 terrain rating road, followed by a very short
scramble over some rocks to the cache. If you want an additional
aerobic workout, you can descend and then ascend 189 steps to the
river bottom. Please note the warning sign that you do so at your
own risk, due to the potential of sudden water flows.
Kayakers, boaters: there is a small dirt boat ramp at the
reservoir if you wish to fish or paddle among the narrow
reaches.
