Tree Hazard

ReporterMark Blakemore

On 6-17-2002, there was a huge tree across the river left channel of the river where it splits for the second time below the Salmon La Sac bridge. The first split is essentially AT the bridge and the second is just after you see the Ranger's cabin for the last time on the left. This tree covered the river from bank to bank and would definetly pose a problem if you weren't paying attention and drifted into the left channel. It is easily visable from upstream.
