Summit Creek Access

This is a good access point for a short class II run down to Leidl or on to Stinson Flats. At mile 11.3 on the Glenwood-Goldendale Road turn onto the forest road across from the mill that descends down to the river. You will be on river right with views of the river and in 3.4 miles you will reach the Summit Creek Bridge. You can put in on the downstream river left side of the bridge. Note however that the road is marked for no parking along the road. You can continue upstream on river left and there are additional informal access points as you continue upstream. At mile 7.5 the road starts to climb up away from the river and at mile 9.2 you will reach the fish hatchery gate which is closed to public access on river left.
