West Glacier River Boat Ramp
West Glacier River Boat Ramp
This day-use-only river access site on the Middle Fork Flathead River features a native surface boat ramp, designated parking area, and vault toilet—making it a popular put-in and take-out point for rafting and fly-fishing float trips.
Located approximately 15 miles east of Hungry Horse on US Highway 2, it offers free access and serves as a transition point where the river's character shifts from Class II-III rapids upstream to calmer waters downstream.
No overnight camping is permitted, and solid human waste containment and fire pans are required in the Wild and Scenic Corridor.
