Wynoochee Dam Put-in
Description
On Wynoochee River Road mile 33.3 (2.3 miles north of the Forest Service boundary sign where it becomes FR 22) turn west to stay on FR 22 (the road continuing straight is FR 23). From this turn, follow FR 22 0.3 miles to a right turn onto FR 2294 (follow the signs to Coho Campground). At 0.8 mile down FR 2294 you'll find the access to the uppermost put-in at the base of Wynoochee Dam as it crosses the river just downstream of the dam. Parking is available on river left on the north side of the road. The access to the river is a spur from FR 2294-010 that heads south from opposite the parking lot. Although this road is normally gated, those who have planned ahead have arranged for the dam operator to unlock the gate. It's a relatively short walk if the gate is locked. The dam is located at USGS river mile 51.8.
