The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has temporarily limited access to the west portion of Avery Park near Wishram to day use and walk-in only. Vehicle access is restricted due to damage from a wildfire that burned shoreline vegetation, resulting in erosion and the potential for unsafe driving conditions. The east portion of the park remains open for camping and vehicle access. The Corps does not yet know when the western section of the park will reopen. Those with questions can call The Dalles Lock and Dam park ranger office at 541-506-7857.
