The beautifully landscaped view point offers a panoramic view of the Noxon Rapids Dam, even more exciting in the spring and early summer run-off season when the spill gates release water. This day use only site includes picnic facilities information displays and an accessible vault toilet. Nesting osprey and soaring eagles are often seen.Enter your comment here.

The route to the picnic shelter does meet accessibility standards but the table does not meet those standards.
