East Hatchery Ford Boat Ramp

East Hatchery Ford is a concrete block boat ramp on the Henrys Fork Snake River that serves as the last takeout before Mesa Falls—missing this takeout is critical as waterfalls downstream are not boatable.

The ramp accommodates 10+ parking spaces and has restroom facilities, though the access road can be rough and bumpy. This is a takeout-only location best suited for experienced boaters navigating the technical rapids of the Riverside to Hatchery Ford section.
