Report: The road into Ah-Di-Na campground and the Nature Conservancy is open. The road just past the turnoff to get to the dam is closed just past the turnoff to Ah-Di-Na and the Conservancy. It will reopen in December. The Ah-Di-Na campground will probably open mid-month. Visibility isn't great, but it is improving. Releases are around 200 CFS from the lake now and, while the river is cloudy up top, you can still have a pretty good day some big, dark flies. The Salmonflies are done, some Golden Stones continue to pick up a few fish towards dark. PMD's and Caddis should be coming on strong now. Stripping streamers in tailouts should get you tight to rainbows. Throw large, dark flies to maximize visibility.
