I drove out and spoke with the Ranger last week, and he also mentioned they may need some support with WDFW on the removal of the log jam by folks calling in or writing letters.
It sounds like the work was set to be complete awhile ago, but the log jam was deemed habitat and thus not being able to be removed.
I will be calling him back in a few days to see what he has found out and what type of support they may need.
In the long run, it will be better all the way around to have the park available. I would imagine that the work will not be able to be done though until the work window this summer.
