North Spit docks removed for winter, Nov. 5

BLM release – NORTH BEND, Ore. – The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will remove the docks from the water at the North Spit Boat Ramp on Thursday, Nov. 5. While the docks will be unavailable during the winter months, the other facilities at the site will remain open. The agency stores the docks on dry ground during the winter months to prevent stormy conditions and strong currents in the bay from damaging the docks. The docks are put back in the water each spring to provide access for boating, fishing, crabbing, clamming, and other recreational opportunities. For additional information, please contact the BLM’s Coos Bay District Office at (541) 756-0100.
