Opal Springs Dam with a portage on river right. This is
also an alternate take-out as the slackwater of Billy
Chinook Reservoir is a short distance downstream, but
it requires a hike out.
Opal Springs dam includes a hydro project licensed as
FERC P-5891. Flow above is for the Terrebone gauge.
The hike out on the private road at Opal Springs is one
alternative to paddling the slackwater on Billy Chinook
Reservoir.
