Does anyone know if you can put in at the Riverpark? I haven't been in a couple weeks but last time I tried they had the doc closed working on it.

Thanks.
It is just south of the DuPont Parkway bridge in the river park.
It has been closed for weeks due to high water and I don't see it being open any time soon.
It is a good place to put in when the river gets back to normal, not too far from the dam.

They close the Riverpark Ramp whenever water goes over the concrete walkway out onto the dock. That normally happens if they flow gets up to about 80,000 cfs. Currently it is still at 170,000 cfs.

The dock is damaged. Spoke to a ranger last week and he said it will be 2 to 3 weeks after the water drops before it will be open.

It will be a disaster there for awhile. Probably changing any tournament plans for some time.

Ugh! 2 to 3 weeks in government time can translate to months.
It was already missing a float. I wish they would use some smaller floats so my grandpa don't have to jump in the boat. We started using the other dock and just walking a little further. It would be nice if they would extend it a little bit also.

The RP entrance was still taped off yesterday.
