Rifle River Hidden Entrance!




There are several public entrances to the Rifle River!  Some entrances are more well known then others!








     The last few posts have displayed a couple of the popular, and more well known public entrances to the Rifle River.  The Rifle River High Banks, and the Rifle River Pipeline Park are used by most of the tourists to access the river for fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and tubing.  There is another entrance that is unadvertised, and somewhat hidden, and is known by the locals as the Kenneth Drive entrance.  Hidden down a side street (Kenneth), this public entrance features a parking area, and steps right into the water.  Even on a windy afternoon, the current is still calm at this entrance, and the park itself is very quiet, and less frequently visited.  The park has been dedicated to Harold R. Kleinert (1923-2009) who was the founder of the Rifle River Watershed Restoration Committee!  There will be no photo album accompanying this post, but scroll down to check out more pictures of the park.  Be sure to check out all of the Mitten State Sports Report's archived material. Leave a comment or email the Mitten State Sports Report directly at mittenstatesportsreport@rocketmail.com
