14-038 Corps of Engineers offers summer recreation opportunities near Ice Harbor Dam
Corps recreation planners invite the public to "play it safe" while having some warm-weather fun. Although above-water temperatures are becoming warmer, springtime water temperatures can be cold enough to cause swimmers to develop hypothermia – a severe lowering of core body temperature. State boating, hunting and fishing regulations apply to visitors at Corps sites. Hunting is allowed in designated areas only. Boaters should ensure personal floatation devices are on board for each person – children 12 and younger are required to wear PFDs when in a vessel less than 19 foot in length. Recreation information is available on our website: www.nww.usace.army.mil/corpsoutdoors.
