Title: Eli Creek BBQ
Post by: yogi on March 02, 2012, 09:44:48 AM: Looking at taking the Weber Q and some shade up to Eli Creek for a day trip for a BBQ lunch and a swim. There are toilets and a boardwalk that goes a couple of hundred meters up the creek. From there you can launch your flotation device and ride the creek all the way to the mouth.

Eli Creek altered conditions: For improved visitor safety, rangers will be installing signage to permanently prevent vehicle parking on the western side of Eli Creek. This area is being allocated as a ‘vehicle free zone’ in which people can recreate without threat of vehicle strike. Please observe and obey all signage.
