Petty Creek Boat Ramp

Petty Creek FAS offers a boat ramp (Type C) and vault toilet facilities located conveniently off I-90 at Exit 77, about 24 miles west of Missoula, making it a practical access point for Clark Fork River paddling and fishing.

The site is small with limited parking (approximately 4 spaces) and minimal facilities, best suited as a quick launch or takeout spot rather than an extended stay destination.

Note that the location experiences noise from nearby I-90 traffic and trains, and the site is open year-round with a small day-use fee.
