Harriet Lake road access

[ColinShots]

Let’s do a camp one night this spring? @ColinShots maybe we can convince Randy to lower his standards?

Absolutely down to.

You could hear an audible gasp from the bankies when I released it!

I LOVE that sound!

I’ve heard some rumors that at least the Ripplebrook Road route might reopen sometime this year. The sooner the better. It’s been such a warm winter, we could probably be fishing it right now under normal circumstances. The 57 route isn’t terrible, usually takes me a little under two hours from southeast PDX, and this year I was able to get in as late as December. But man, I miss being able to fish there early in the season.

You’re right. I would love to fish Harriet right now, if not for the fires.

One note: never trust @ColinShots’ judgement on snow drift depth in that zone in the spring.

Let's never talk about that again...

You’re right, that was a cheap shot

I hunted down an update, and it sounds like the short route to Harriet *might* open up sometime this summer. If not, though, the company contracted to do the cleanup and repairs has to get the work done by December 31, 2024. So worst case, we’re looking at one more season of going up and over the mountain.
