Crooked River Lock Schedule

Due to current flooding and the US Coast Guard closure of the Crooked River, the lock, while open to let flooding recede, is closed to navigation until further notice.
– All the public ramps are now closed and have signage declaring them as such (Conway, Springdale Twp, Channel Rd)
– The Rivers have been closed to navigation per the USCG and will remain so pending emerging conditions
– The Lakes are NOT closed but use is discouraged. Boat wakes can cause damage to flooded properties
