Fish and Game Twin Lakes access site in North Idaho will be closed Oct. 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023
The Idaho Fish and Game Twin Lakes boating access site will be closed from Oct. 1, 2022 through April 30, 2023. The site is located in the channel between Upper and Lower Twin Lakes on West Twin Lakes Road.
The closure is necessary to allow for dredging the channel between Upper and Lower Twin Lakes to provide better water quality and boating access for anglers and recreational users. The dredging project is being conducted by the Twin Lakes Improvement Association.
The project will remove approximately 8,600 cubic yards of organic material and 330 pounds of phosphorus. The channel will be widened to 50 feet and deepened to 6-7 feet. Not only will this effort improve boating access and navigation, but it will also improve water quality.
The channel and boat launch will be closed to the public for the duration of the project. Signage will be posted at both ends of the channel and at the boat launch.
If Twin Lakes is your fishing or recreation place of choice, don’t fret too much. The county boat launches located on Upper and Lower Twin Lakes will remain open and accessible by the public. You can follow this link to learn more about those launches.
