Warnings
The bridge was closed in 2000 for corroded cables and is not built for jumping. Reservoir drawdown raises the drop and shallows the landing in late summer. Steep, slippery scramble to scout the pool.
Access
Quarter-mile hike from the parking area to the bridge.
Best conditions
Only in low, stable summer flow — never jump if the water level looks uncertain from the bridge.
