Mapes Creek Boat Ramp

Mapes Creek Boat Ramp is an unimproved drift boat launch on the Kilchis River featuring a gravel parking lot and vault restroom.

Note that the ramp has a significant drop-off at the bottom due to low water flows, requiring boaters to use extreme caution when launching and retrieving. Day-use parking requires a $10 pass or annual permit; no overnight camping is permitted.
