Trillium Accessible???

Hondo · 04-29-2009, 10:14 AM

Anybody know if it's possible to get to Trillium Lake? It seems like the road should be navigable by now, but I'd rather know before I drive up there.

I drove by last weekend, and the parking lot had cars in it. Unless they get a snow plow up there soon, I imagine the campground will be closed for another month at a minimum.

Are you talking about the parking lot at the boat ramp or the parking area just off 26?

Still snowed in from Hwy 26. Maybe for another month if it is not plowed.

i drove past it yesterday and still about 3 to 3.5 feet of snow blocking the road...oh and by the way it was snowing hard and sticking when i was driving home up on the pass.

There were cars in the parking lot, just off of 26. It was snowed in right after that.

Nice toon!

I fished Trillium for the first time today (6/6). First spot I went to was pretty good, kept 3 and released about 4 more... all about 10-12 inches. Decided to go towards the dam more as I saw quite a few people there. After an hour there and 0 bites I went back to the spot I had left... released 2 more smaller ones... then wham! Picture attached... great holdover... just over 20" and 3 pounds.

Took the picture when I got home.

Great first trip... left Portland at about 9:30 am and was back home before 4:00 pm.

Great looking fish!

I hit Trillium yesterday with my girlfriend and another female friend. Fishing was excellent as they caught about 20 fish in four hours while I controlled the boat, unhooked fish and had a couple beverages. They got cold so we were off the water at 5. All in all a great day; church, fishing, cold beverages, good company and a designated driver to top it off... What a great life!
