Quick Facts

Jackson Lake Dam picnic area is below the dam on the north side of the Snake River. Large cottonwood trees shade several picnic tables. Minimal facilities include a vault toilet and trash receptacles. A short walk leads to the outwash from the dam. Many visitors launch non-motorized boats to float the river down toward Pacific Creek and a number of visitors fish in the turbulent outflow.
