Late Fall Access Updates

Again, by this time I know these news items are not going to be of interest to many.  But, on the chance that there are a few that would want to know, and knowing how long it takes word to get around. . . .

Cottonwood-Steverson WMA boat ramp reopens after repairs

The boat ramp at Cottonwood-Steverson Wildlife Management Area, located north of Hyannis in Cherry County, has reopened.

The ramp underwent significant repairs due to the undermining, settlement and separation that had occurred. Riprap was added to the perimeter of the ramp to protect it from future erosion. A new Americans with Disabilities Act accessible parking pad was installed to provide access to the top of the boat ramp. Crushed rock also was added from the access road to the concrete ramp.

This project is made possible through a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Sportfish Restoration Program grant. Direct questions to ngpc.boataccess@nebraska.gov.
