Mamquam River Access Update
The Mamquam River Gate Access is open. Key rental (free with deposit) is available via Valhalla Pure Outfitters in the Squamish Station Mall. The gate mechanism is very sticky and needs adjustments. This will happen soon. Most of this $16,000 has been spent but remaining projects include removal of old rebar from failed waterline and the installation of webcam and gauge. These two projects both need to take place in low water (now) and should be completed shortly. Next is the formation of the Mamquam River Access Society. Were holding our first meeting in Sept. whereby Im assuming to take on the role of secretary/treasurer. The mandate is to preserve, enhance and facilitate whitewater access to this river. Membership would be welcome once were up and running.
 
Mamquam Access Update
Many thanks to John Harvey, the land owners, financial supporters and all the volunteers working on keeping access to the Mamquam River open for paddlers. About $11,0000 has been raised and crews are currently working on the road. RCABC has donated $500 and thanks to the Dogwood and Beaver clubs for their significant contributions.
