Iron Gate River Access

Iron Gate Dam was located immediately upstream of this access point that is on the downstream river right side of the Lakeview Road Bridge. American Whitewater worked to formalize this site as an access point for recreational river runners and fishermen as a condition of the surrender order for the hydrolectric project. The access point that serves river runners also serves as an access point for water trucks engaged in firefighting. The site has a concrete boat ramp, river access spur road, picnic table, toilet, and parking area including space for trailers. The Lakeview Road bridge over the Klamath will remain for the time being but is closed to traffic and has been replaced with the truss bridge just upriver.
