Recreational users on the Cedar River should be aware that a submerged steel cable has created a hazard condition spanning the channel between Cedar Grove Road Bridge (Rivermile 11.45) and the Upper Jones Road Bridge (Rivermile 9.4). While part of the cable is visible, part of it is submerged making it difficult for boaters and other river users to see.

The cable is stretched taut from the right bank to a log lodged roughly in the middle of the channel at approximately Rivermile 9.7. It is attached on one end to a tree, which appears to have fallen as a result of bank erosion, and on the other end to several wooden boards visibly anchored in the right bank. While the cable's origin is not known, it has been determined that it is not affiliated with a King County bank stabilization project.
