Launches
Where the Montana ramp list comes from
The list joins two FWP sources: the fishing access site layer, for sites marked with a boat ramp, and the state park boat ramp points. 163 launches have a page here, 163 of them FWP fishing access sites and 0 state park ramps, across 41 counties.
No source gives lanes, hours or fees for a ramp, so none are printed; fee rows appear on a site page only when FWP lists one.
