About This Access Site
**Location & Amenities**
Blair Bridge Access is a concrete boat ramp located on the North Fork of the White River near Althea in Ozark County, Missouri. This Conservation Area provides paddlers and boaters with a concrete low-water bridge and dedicated ramp below the bridge. The site features picnic tables, campfire rings, and a privy facility, making it suitable for day trips or longer outings.

**What to Expect**
This is a straightforward launch point on a scenic Ozark river section. Paddlers should be aware that Blair Bridge is a low-water concrete bridge—boats must be pulled over it rather than paddled under during normal water conditions. Just downstream, The Falls presents a 2-3 foot rock ledge that can be navigated by keeping to the left side of the chute and angling right (always scout first). The immediate area features a rocky riffle on a bend below a lower spring. This access point works well as either a put-in or take-out for float trips on the North Fork.
