Those directions may be a bit misleading. Let me try to clarify. The access to Haapa is on the south side of the North Fork Lewis. From I-5 northbound exit at Woodland. Turn hard right, then hard right immediately again across the bridge to the south side of the river. Follow that road up the river (left) until the road forks. Keep left at the "Y" and then take the first left to Haapa (it is marked).

What I wonder is why anyone would go there right now? If you launch a boat you cannot go either upriver or downriver as the flow is only 1,000 CFS. If you are bankfishing, I have to ask for what??? The steelhead are stale and not likely to bite, and there are not yet salmon in the river. Perhaps in a few weeks........
