It has technically been off limits for years, but people ignored the no trespassing signs. Likely they put that up so people can't play stupid and say they didn't see the sign.
Dead man’s cove is located on federal property. No trespassing allowed. All trails that descend into the cove are closed to the public.
Due to liability.
It's on Coast Gaurd Property. I have a friend with a Crab Boat that Launches out of Illwaco Washington.
