I actually just did it this past summer... They make you park super far away and there's quite a few obstacles to get to it. Probably not technically legal anymore but who's gonna care enough to stop you? Extremely gross looking water too.

Check out my pic, loved isaqueena, there was a spot on the far side where there was no algae so you could step, push and dive, not sure exact year but will guess 1977, great memories

we still do it, you have to be careful now though because several parts of it have exposed rebar which if you hit can be a great day for you

Too chicken to slide off of it, though. Thought i'd rip something wide open. Coach made us run up there from Daniel sometimes. Grew up about 4 or 5 miles from there.
