Najbolje vrijeme za posjetu

Early morning or late afternoon in summer offers calmer water and fewer crowds. Late spring through early fall gives the warmest swimming conditions, winters bring snow and limited beach access.

Savjeti za budžet

Beach access is free, but parking at the main lot often requires a paid city or seasonal day permit during peak months; use nearby street parking or arrive early to avoid fees.

O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Brodski hodnik od pola milje vijuga kroz vlažne livade i šume crvenog grba gde se jarko narandžasti losos kaskan vraća da se mresti na jesen, nudeći lako posmatranje divljih životinja duž blage petlje. Unutar podvodne komore za posmatranje, stakleni prozor je u nivou vode, omogućavajući vam da gledate pastrmke i losose kako prolaze dok volonteri i rangeri objašnjavaju sezonske ritmove potoka.

Istaknuto: Siđite u tu podvodnu komoru i osetite hladan, vlažan vazduh dok grupe od 50-200 kaskanih lososa formiraju jata blizu stakla tokom najvećih oktobarskih mrestova, njihova narandžasta tela bljeskaju na tamnim šljunkama. Noćne vođene šetnje predvođene rangerima ponekad završavaju kod male informativne table gde volonteri upisuju dnevni broj lososa, tako da možete pročitati pravi broj poput '73' i čuti tiho žuborenje potoka pod zvezdanim nebom.

Insajderski savjeti

Wear water shoes, the shoreline has rocky patches and hot sand in summer.
Climb the rocky point at the west end of the beach for the best sunset photos and wide lake views.
Bring a shade tent or umbrella, limited natural shade near the main sand area.
Arrive before 10 a.m. on summer weekends to secure parking and a flat spot on the sand.
