Something not right?

Description

Coming from the north on hwy 191 there is a short paved road (steep & narrow) to the overlook. It is close to the dam. At the end of the road is a parking lot with awesome view of the reservoir and its surroundings. Some noise from generator at dam. I saw no signs that overnight parking is not allowed.

Awesome place for a one nighter. We arrived about 7:30pm and had it to ourselves till we left at 7am. An amazing sunset over the gorge was a bonus. If you are looking for multiple nights go into the forest further south with tons of boondocking roads. But for an easy access one nighter, this place is perfect.

Quiet parking area with an amazing view of the reservoir.

We parked just before the boat launch pay booth, several km back, no signs about overnight parking. Talked to a dam security guy. He didn't know if we can sleep there or not, because it's out his competences. At least he told other security guys that we will park there for the night. This probably wouldn't be possible in the summer. I would rather park here without the security cars driving up and down whole night. The bathroom was open.
