**Location & Access:** The 10th Drive boat ramp provides public access to Buffalo Lake and the Fox River system in Montello, Marquette County. This is one of several launch points serving the Buffalo Lake area, making it a convenient option for paddlers and boaters exploring this section of the Fox River corridor.
**What to Expect:** This is a straightforward boat ramp facility suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats. The area offers parking and ramp access to the water, allowing easy entry to Buffalo Lake and connections to the broader Fox River waterway. Paddlers should note that multiple access points exist around Buffalo Lake (including launches near the Montello Dam and on County Road C and D), so you can plan routes with different put-in and take-out options. The nearby Fox River National Wildlife Refuge (1,054 acres of wetland and upland habitat) offers scenic paddling opportunities in the area.
**Planning Your Visit:** Check Wisconsin DNR resources for current conditions, any seasonal restrictions, and parking details before heading out. The Fox River system offers varying paddling experiences, so review water conditions and plan your route accordingly based on your skill level and boat type.
