A message from the Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery:
ATTENTION RIVER FLOATERS! The water in Icicle Creek is reaching its summer low point. This means slow moving water and stress for river dwelling species like fish. Although the gates at the hatchery boat launch remain open for tribal fishers, the boat launch is not a good place to put in your tubes. A float trip will take a long time and you’ll likely be walking some of it.
For a more enjoyable experience, we recommend floating the Wenatchee River instead. You can enter at the boat launch by the bridge at 8801 Icicle Rd.
