It typically opens around Memorial Day (last Monday in May) and closes after Labor Day (first Monday in September). Check with Parks Maintenance (503-615-2400) first before you drive there. Late spring rains can cause launch to be closed longer due to debris from flooding. Notice for paddlers -- Metro's Farmington launch, down river from Rood Bridge Park, has been damaged by significant erosion. If you choose to take out at Farmington, please use extreme caution.
