South Fork of the Snake River: Conant Boat Access

This BLM site features a concrete boat ramp and separate raft launch facilities. There is a large pool to launch boats and a back channel for rafts. The water at the raft launch is swift and the last couple steps have been washed out. Rafts should still set up in the raft area and can launch from the raft launch or the boat launch, if fully prepared. The river has roller coaster waves and turbulent water upstream. Motorized boats beware of the gravel bar in front of the boat ramp.
