Description

Camp Pashayan is usually open weekends during the spring, summer and fall.   Contact the San Joaquin Parkway Trust for specific hours and operations.   

A railroad trestle and freeway 99 both cross the river at the downstream end of Camp Pashayan. 

At the downstream end of the freeway overpass, are old bridge pillings (posts) that collect driftwood.   There is usually an opening, but in some years it can get completely clogged until someone cleans out some of the driftwood..   Be more careful during or after periods of high water that could deposit more driftwood here.
