Bald Eagle at Wickiup Reservoir
We have seen several bald eagles in this
area.
The biggest bald eagle we ever saw was at the
junction of Road#44 and Road#4260. He was
on the beach and when he spread his wings was
the most incredible sight... must of been an 8-10'
wing span as he stood tall and brave for what
seemed like an eternity.

FIRE RESTRICTIONS
It is you responsibility to know what fire
restrictions are in place. Axe, shovel, and
5 gallons of water required for dispersed
camping. A fire extingusher and a good
pair of leather gloves recommended.
Wickiup Reservoir(11,200-acres) was
named
for the "wickiup'' poles of the shelters made
by the Indians who would camp here when
fishing and hunting. The poles would be
covered with tree limbs and brush. In 1949
when Wickiup Reservoir was filled with water
the poles were still standing.
