Garat Crossing

Garat Crossing is a four-wheel drive access point on the East Fork Owyhee River located in Idaho, serving as an alternative launch site when water levels at Duck Valley are too low.

The site provides river access for kayakers and rafters running the upper Owyhee, though the rough dirt road requires high-clearance vehicles and may be impassable when wet.
