Easement to
River Renewed
Phil Schneider, state game di­
rector, advised anglers that they
will continue to have access to the
Nehalem river in the Oxbow area,
located about three miles down­
stream from Elsie, as a result of
an easement renewal with Frank
A. Charnley, owner of the proper­
ty.
The access agreement will ex­
tend for a period of ten years and
will be subject to renewal at the
end of that period.
Schneider said that the Charnley
property has been available to
anglers for many years on a re­
quest basis with few, if any, fisher­
men ever being turned away. In
1956, the generosity of Charnley
resulted in the first ten-year agree­
ment with the game commission
which gave anglers ingress and
egress to the mile and a quarter
of stream bordering the land.
Fishermen who have used the
trails on the Charnley property
owe a debt of gratitude to the Paul
Bunyan Explorer Scouts, Posts 26,
58 and 81, for this convenience,
with development accomplished in
June of 1956 shortly after the first
agreement was signed, The Scouts
also developed the limited parking
area on the bluff overlooking the
property.
Schneider said that in recogni­
tion of Charnley’s generosity, the
commission will place a large sign
at the approach road, advising all
who pass of the public access site.
