Senator Wash South Shore

Across the road and over the dam sits another place to park for two weeks at a time and enjoy kayaking the quite waters so Senator Wash. There is one caveat to parking however, if you hear a horn sounding for any length of time, it means they are moving water into the reservoir. The levels usually rise to just below the parking and camping area but it is possible for it to come up even higher. There is a sign as you enter the area that alerts users to be ready to move out if the horns sounds. Hmmmm, well so far so good we are high and dry.

We have been enjoying the senator wash area and yesterday we made what was our longest hike this year. But with the lake at it's low levels, we were able to cut this normally longer hike down considerably from the first time we were here two years back. Given the low water we can do a good part of the hike along the waters edge. What a nice day to be out.
