WISHRAM — The west portion of Avery Park along the Columbia River in Klickitat County is being limited to day-use and walk-in only.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers announced the restriction Wednesday. Vehicle access is being restricted due to damage from a wildfire that burned shoreline vegetation, resulting in erosion and unsafe driving conditions.
The east portion of the park remains open for camping and vehicle access. The Corps said it does not know when the western section will reopen.
The park is at milepost 93 along state Highway 14 near the community of Wishram.
