This is a real nice fishing access site. The road system is all paved. The actual slope of the ramp is 7.3% on the upper half and 14% on the lower half. The bottom part of the ramp is made of large concrete blocks that make access very difficult at the edge of the water. Would need your own support crew to access the water.
