Additional Information
The gate is always open but on the off chance it is closed there is a spot on the other side of the road for parking. The locals in the area will look at you like you have three heads but they are really friendly and curious. There is a great place to camp a few miles down the road at Salsman Provincial Park.

Atmosphere
So far I think I am the only guy to have ever surfed this spot. It can be a real gem. You can spend hours there and never see a soul. This wave is perfect for longboard cruising.
