Looking back to parked truck and future SIL
Looking forwards along access road. Either follow straight to T intersection at larger access road to Agnew Outtake or turn right around trees and return to hatchery complex.
Looking at fire pit, picnic table etc. There used to be a small leanto structure here, but some kids burned it down.

GPS of parked truck
Elevated walkway to Agnew Outtake & Dungeness River
Dungeness River U/S of Agnew Outtake. Must climb ladder to elevated walkway & follow walkway & trail to river.
Downed tree on right provides access along cliff wall to outcrop just to the right of image center. There used to be 2 more fallen trees crossing the river from outcrop to gravel bar on far side of river. Proposed 2007 B-IBI site was at small side channel to left of gravel bar.
Deep pool taken from same vantage point as previous image.
Same vantage point at previous photo, but turned more to left to show elevated walkway from end of service road
View of truck parked at end of service road. A vertical ladder to the walkway is on the right side of platform ahead.
View of river immediately D/S of Agnew outtake, taken from walkway
View of Agnew Ditch and parking area at end of service road. Turnaround area is adequate, but narrow.
Proposed Site "B"
Access:
Direct access via one of the main service roads at the hatchery complex | |
Follow to the GPS coordinates - river close to road at bench on log rounds on left |
