User Comments
has identified a spanning log on a stretch of the Green River within Flaming Geyser State Park
which may pose a hazard to recreational boaters. The recently fallen cottonwood tree lies partially
submerged and completely spans the channel approximately 500 feet downstream from the put-in
location known to boaters as the Yo-Yo stretch that runs from Flaming Geyser State Park to the
Whitney Bridge (212 Way Southeast) and 300 feet north of the intersection of Flaming Geyser Road
and the service road leading to the park ranger station. Warning signs (see bottom photo) have been
posted at two locations upstream from the log that directs boaters to exit the river. Boaters
should note there is a lower put-in location in the park downstream of the log that avoids the
fallen tree hazard. See map below.
