Congratulations boaters, and Thank You for your efforts toward this end!

This message was received via email from Lewis County PUD:

Whitewater Boaters,

Port Blakey and the District have agreed to open the Copper Canyon Creek Take-Out Site full time during periods when the 300 road is open. A reminder that the 300 road closes for fire danger and logging activities. The District will also close the Copper Canyon Creek Take-Out Site for personal safety reasons during certain maintenance activities. The 340 road vehicle gate is now locked open and ready for whitewater boaters to use.

Please treat the area kindly. We want everyone to enjoy this for years to come.

***It is my interpretation of the FERC generated letter to LCPUD that LCPUD has 30 days to file this plan with FERC. - Renee

Just received word that the lower Cispus River 340 Rd gate has been closed and that LCPUD has regressed to its former plan of only being open on the specified "Open Gate" Days. The LCPUD website has also been revised. As always, be sure to check the LCPUD website to ensure the 300 Rd gate is open, you can currently do that here: https://www.lcpud.org/recreation/copper-canyon-creek-take-out-site/

Okay, this is getting confusing. Today LCPUD announced the 340 Rd gate is in fact OPEN, but they are going through website growing pains. That's cool, it happens.

But LCPUD also said they would update the website early this morning, and this afternoon were reminded it is Friday and current info for the weekend would be Great!

When the website reads the same as the official statements, I will make a new post to help clear potential confusion. For now, LCPUD says the 340 Rd gate is OPEN, but the website, says the 340 Rd gate is closed.
