The boat launch is a primitive boat ramp available to launch boats. The access route to the ramp is very rugged, so use high-clearance vehicles to access the site. Parking is available, and adequate space is available for comfortably navigating a truck/trailer.

Getting there

From the intersection of State Highway 120, turn west on Country Road 8VC and drive for approximately 10 miles until you reach BLM Road 1216. Head south on BLM Road 1216 for approximately 1.7 miles to an intersection of a west-bound two-track. Turn west on the two-track and drive until you reach the Clarks Fork River. There will be River Runner directional signs to guide you.
