Recreation
Reclamation works with federal and non-federal partners to provide quality recreation opportunities throughout the Upper Snake River reach. Recreation areas can include campgrounds, day use areas, parking areas, boat ramps, restrooms, roads, and visitor centers. Recreation complexes usually encompass an entire reservoir area defined by an established boundary. SRAO has one Outdoor Recreation Planner who administers cost-sharing agreements for parks and recreation areas, and oversees budget, design, and planning of construction projects for improvements and rehabilitation to Reclamation lands and facilities.
Please check with managing agencies for information about fees, use, and regulations at each site; they are all different.
