Tips to enjoy Lewis and Clark SRA during mayfly season
The annual emergence of mayflies at Lewis and Clark State Recreation Area is nearly here.
Smith Falls State Park’s campground is closed temporarily after an ice jam on the Niobrara River broke loose Wednesday evening, Feb. 19.
The ice jam has encroached into the campground, blocking its roadway. Access to the falls also has been affected. For public safety, Verdigre Bridge, the footbridge leading to the falls, is closed to until further notice.
Park visitors are encouraged to call the Smith Falls park office at 402-376-1306 for the latest updates.
