Gate at Tumalo Falls to close for winter

Beginning this weekend, the Forest Service will close the gate at Tumalo Falls to motorized traffic until the spring.

The closure occurs annually and is based on weather conditions.

With additional snow predicted for the area, the Bend-Ft. Rock Ranger District has decided to close the gate at Tumalo Falls to motorized access this weekend.

Visitors can continue to recreate in the area, but are asked not to park in front of the gate once it is closed.
