I agree. I can't quite make out where the ramp is either ? I was able to magnify the pics and get a closer look before I had to down-size to post. A lot of wood posts all sticking up out of the water in front of the ramp area ? It was referred to as the Wolftever boat dock back then also. I noticed most of the cars in the parking lot don't have trailers attached. The boat races in the marina slough blew me away. I had no idea. I could see hundreds of people on the banks watching. Could you imagine trying to fish anywhere around there ? Wow -- how things have changed. I think I'll post some more pics.
 
Thanks for the pics. I agree with the comment on how different the park looks now. I guess it is from erosion and also further development.
