Easy access to the lower section of A. Well-maintained path upriver towards the dam is easily accessible from this put in. Ample parking and access to some of the best trout fishing one could ever ask for - all surrounded by absolutely spectacular scenery.

$5 day use fee. This is the end of section A of Green River, about 7 miles downriver from the dam.

Quite the tail water. Great place to fly fish or have fun rafting during the summer. Always look forward to spending time out here.
