We’re sharing a quick river conditions update for those navigating the McKenzie.

The left channel exiting Powerline Flat below Bellinger Landing is once again blocked. This area has a history of changing conditions, and recent movement has made the left channel impassable. Boaters should plan accordingly and use caution when approaching this section of the river.

As we noted in our previous update last year, this stretch can become technical quickly as wood shifts and channels change. While conditions elsewhere on the river remain clear at this time, this specific location requires added awareness and thoughtful route selection.

Please stay alert, scout when possible, and adjust your plans as needed. We’ll continue to share updates as conditions change. Safe boating!
