We
are excited to announce the installation of a stairlift from the
restaurant

This major upgrade will make it easier for us to host events for groups and
families with a physically challenged member.

Campground News
The campground received major upgrades last summer. An open-bottom
arch ("fish friendly")
culvert was installed over Deadman Creek to promote fish passage and
reduce erosional damage during heavy spring runoffs. In addition, the
gravel road accessing the campsites was relocated farther from the creek to
provide better stream protection. Revegetation efforts proceeded into
late fall with the reintroduction of native plants and grasses to the
disturbed areas. The campground will be reseeded again in spring by
lodge personnel to assure complete restoration.
A side benefit of the
Deadman Creek Culvert Project was the enlargement of existing campsites.
Some camping areas had to be eliminated, but the net effect will be a much
better experience for our guests.
Twelve new picnic tables are planned for 2012 to complete the campground
upgrade.
