Join a Park Ranger for a guided walk through the ruins of the South Fork Dam, daily at 10:30 am and 2:30 pm, now through September 30, 2022. This interpretive walk will last approximately 45 minutes and will take participants to the bottom of the dam, through the breach and back out on the other side. The meeting location is on the South Abutment.

Participants will learn about May 31, 1889, the hillside across from the dam, and much more! Please note that the last portion of the walk contains a steep section with stairs. The walk is approximately 1/3 mile.
