During low water in the summer, the island is connected to the mainland!

Go all the way to the end of the Dike Trail in the wildlife refuge and scramble down and across the huge sandbar to the island.

Even though I-84 and Corbett is just across the river, you do feel a sense of seclusion.

Most of the island has a wooded shoreline with a huge meadow taking up most of the interior.

Be super careful of the crumbling sand cliffs and lots of thorny blackberry bushes.

Have fun!
Had an amazing time on the River!
I'm going to make sure that are amazing thing
This place is a Bermuda Triangle of sandbars! Stay well away from this island and boat in the marked navigation channel! Lots of sand bars on the east end and north side! Pack a lunch! If you get stuck, you'll be waiting till the tide come back in!
Awesome time on the river
I camp there every summer only way to my spot is by boat. I just learned you can visit the actual gov. Part. This place has amazing history. I find it so interesting that a family lived there for over 100 yrs claimed it as many Americans claimed land many moons ago to one day to have the government take it from them just because our government feels they can do whatever they want. They even have a book on the red family
Absolutely horrible! Do not go here! Unless you want be completely secluded, be forced to witness the abundant wildlife (Great Blue Herons, Bald Eagles, Golden Eagles, deer, otter, etc.), eat blackberries as you walk along the beach, and see more stars in the sky than you ever thought possible this close to civilization!
Nice undeveloped, wild place if the water's low enough or you've got a boat
