Rooster Rock faces threat to nude beach boundaries
Rooster Rock State Park, one of Oregon’s premier locations for naturists and home to the country’s first officially designated clothing-optional beach, faces a potential change in how its clothing-optional boundaries are defined. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) has proposed a rule change that could pave the way for easier future reductions to the clothing-optional area.
The existing rule, part of Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 736-010-0065, specifies fixed geographic boundaries for the clothing-optional section of the park. These boundaries are currently tied to physical landmarks, such as the easternmost beach access stairway and the high-water mark of the Columbia River. The proposed change, however, would replace these fixed designations with boundaries determined by maps published on the OPRD website. This would allow adjustments to be made without requiring public hearings or formal processes.
