Accessibility Description (ABA/ADA)

The site has a large, paved parking area with about 24 paint-striped spaces, 2 of which are marked as accessible and located near the toilet and covered picnic area. Parts of the asphalt surface are buckling, and the lot has a slight (less than 5 percent) slope.���

There are 2 unisex accessible vault toilets in a restroom facility. A cement ramp leads up to the restroom building from the parking lot. A steel railing has been installed along two edges of the ramp. There are no sinks in this facility and the site does not have potable water.��

A 20' x 20' shade structure covers 3 picnic tables, 2 of which have extensions on one end to accommodate visitors in wheelchairs. The tables sit on hard-packed gravel. A cut-out from the curb provides wheelchair access.��

Accessibility Description (ABA/ADA)�

The site has ample parking, including a signed accessible parking spot with a concrete access aisle. The access aisle connects to a concrete walkway leading to the 10' x 10' shade shelter. A picnic table with an extension on one end to accommodate visitors in wheelchairs sits on a concrete pad under this shade structure. There is no grill near this shelter.�����

Visitors can access the unisex single vault toilet, which was designed to be accessible, using the site's gravel surface. However, erosion has created a lip at the front edge of the toilet's concrete pad that may pose challenges to people with mobility impairments. There is no running water at this site.���

�The 20' x 20' shade structure has 4 picnic tables, 2 of which are accessible, and an accessible grill.���

�There are 3 other picnic tables along the path leading from the information kiosk to the 10' x 10' shade shelter. They sit on the ground and may pose challenges to visitors with mobility impairments.��
