**Location & Facilities:** Dry Creek is a state fishing access site located near Superior in Mineral County, providing boat launch access to the Clark Fork River. This day-use-only site accommodates both paddlers and anglers, with a boat ramp suitable for kayaks, canoes, and trailered boats. The site is situated within the Lolo National Forest area, offering a scenic launching point into the lower Clark Fork corridor.
**Paddling Information:** Dry Creek serves as an excellent takeout or access point for floats on the Clark Fork. From upstream access points, paddlers can reach Dry Creek as part of day trips ranging from 11 to 14 miles depending on your starting location. The Clark Fork in this section is non-technical water, making it suitable for intermediate paddlers and families. Plan accordingly for current conditions and water levels, which can vary seasonally. Nearby campground options include Cascade Campground (reservable), Muchwater Dispersed Campground, and Little Joe Campground in the Lolo National Forest—all within 10 miles—making overnight trips easy to arrange.
