FWP to rebuild parking lot and picnic area

Cornell Park Fishing Access Site will be closed next week while crews reconstruct the parking lot and improve the picnic area.

The closure is scheduled to last Sunday, Nov. 24, through Saturday, Nov. 30, though construction may last longer. The shoreline of the Beaverhead River at the site will remain open for wade angling, but only when accessed from the river itself. The boat ramp at the site will be closed.
