Comment:

This site has been moved off the Hwy 24 Bridge and is now a wading sample at or just upstream of the new bridge completed in 2007.

Location:

HIGHWAY 24 BRIDGE just east of Yakima. Nob Hill Blvd, which bisects Yakima east to west, turns into Hwy 24. Turn north at light opposite entrance to Kmart praking lot just west of Yakima River and just east of Interstate 82. Turn right again past wrecking yard and on to Greenway parking area. Walk to river.
