Ogden, South Fork

There’s a river wide strainer at the spire just at the top of the rapids starting as of 6/2/23. We were able to portage on the right and put in just below the strainer and run the rapids.

There is a fence across the River about 1-1.5 miles downstream of the Weber Country Campground that is right below Causey Reservoir. You cannot pass threw the river and there is private land on both sides. There is most likely a second piece of fence just below the first but we had to walk out. The entire river is fenced off including a tributary that flows in on river right making it difficult to walk around the fence. Walking out requires trespassing on farmland and through cattle pastures. If you are driving to Causey: when you take the turn at the Red Cliff Restaurant onto Causey Rd., the fence will almost directly line up with first drive way you pass. If you want to do this section, I would suggest USFS Willow Campground as a put in to avoid the private land and river-wide fence. I have contacted several organizations and government officials about this dangerous fence.
