My Bass Pond - Bowers Rocks State Park in Albany, Oregon
Nestled between the fertile farmlands west of Albany, and the north-running Willamette River, is an Oregon State Park that is virtually unknown.
Hiking, mountain biking, photography, fishing, and picnicking is encouraged!
The park was called Hub City Gravel in the 1980s, and the ponds hold bass, perch, and very big carp. Park access is for daytime hours only, and the only way in is an easement that allows foot and bicycle traffic only.
