Today through Sunday contractors will be on site to conduct blasting operations associated with the construction of a new bridge across the Whitechuck River. This bridge will replace the one washed out in the October 2003 floods and will provide access to the Whitechuck Launch on the Sauk Wild and Scenic River.
The Forest Service recently completed work on a new access point on the lower Sauk River. This is part of a series of proposed projects of interest to boaters, made possible as part of the hydro reliensing agreement for the City of Seattle's hydropower dams on the Skagit River system.
