Carnival Market Boat Ramp

Located about 3 miles up Westside Highway from Longview, this primitive launch features a steep, sandy lower section composed of dark gray Mt. St. Helens ash and deep ruts in the upper portion.

This launch is only suitable for small jon boats launched by hand or vehicles with 4-wheel drive and good knobby tires, as recovery of larger boats up the steep lower section can be extremely difficult without winch assistance.

Water levels significantly affect usability—at low summer water levels, exposed sandbars and shallow conditions may prevent larger boats from reaching mid-channel.
