The cleghorn launch area might even be closed due to the snow/ ice situation. It's still accesable by foot but it's a bit of a hike.
If you have been to the lake before, as soon as you pass the the pay booth you will make a left on one of the access roads to make your way into Cleghorn, just follow the signs.
I was there yesterday. I drove all the way down to the boat launch off cleghorn rd. I didn't see a single closed gate throughout the whole park. Everything was wide open. Game warden was prowling but I was literally the only person on the lake.
Read my report on the Freshwater Reports section for details. Lots of striper! Saw a few trout too. Dress for soaking wet and windy cold weather.

About 75 ft past gate is a road to the left (hard to see) take that to the end...
That used to be a hand launch ramp & floating dock... The camp ground/beach in the report your chasing is just before that dock...

Cleghorn Road turnoff from the 15 freeway is a winding dirt road. It will dump you out on 138 right at the entrance to Silverwood. Although it is a straight shot (as the crow flies) from the 15 to the entrance it winds around so much, there are a couple of roads that turn off of it that you could get lost on and, especally this time of year, it might be closed or washed out or you might at least need a 4x4 to use it you're better off, and likely quicker time wise, going around on 138.Quote:
