Access Issue: The Eklutna Canyon drainage is private property owned by Elkutna Corp.
Details
Eklutna specifically states climbing is not allowed on their property. This has been an ongoing issue for many decades. Please leave no trace (no bright tat, limit bolting, do not leave fixed lines anywhere including the overland approach, and do not cut down trees on approaches) and, in general, keep a very low profile and climb at your own risk.
Description
The dam was removed during 2018, it remains here for historical purposes.
Stars just because I think it is pretty cool looking. It's actually pretty short (60ft) Lead up wherever looks inviting or climb up ice/concrete/cables on the left to get up top and set up a toprope on the old dam stuff. Trees also exist on either side than can be used for a belay. Leaving tat on the dam or surrounding trees is discouraged. You can rap off the handle/pipe on the climbers left.
The Dam was built in the mid to late 1920s to help divert water towards the tunnel to the Eklutna Powerhouse. The catwalk that stretches above the dam was constructed in 1933. According to the design documents the dam is 61ft high, and 98ft at the crest.
