I was on a trail at different points, and noticed the ribbons and little bridges. I didn't know that was the actual trail though, I thought it was on the other side for some reason.

Just to clarify, does the trail start at the provincial campground side or the bible camp side?

Campground... that's the trail I was on anyway, by the sounds of what people are saying, that was it.

I thought it was on the bible camp side (native reserve side) though, because of the issue of people walking through their land, so they wanted to contain it to the trail as per the agreement...

I guess it was buit on the side it is on to keep fishers away from their side of the river.

That definately makes sense, I just figured their idea was that since people were going to intrude anyway, they may as well contain them to a path. heh

A little more info on the trail.

Park in the provincial campground.  Trail starts to the right side of where people park.  Trail is marked at the beginning by 3 or 4 ft high green/white trail markers with Chehalis Fishing Trail marked on them.  There are around 4 markers that follow the river down to the trees.  Follow these markers.    Look for the last one before the trail goes into the trees downstream.  After that the trail is fairly obvious but marked with orange or blue ribbons.  There are about 3 or 4 small bridges along the trail.  You still need to do some bush wacking but way less than before. Thanks to all who made this trail possible.
