About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** School Trust is a boat ramp located approximately 6 miles northeast of Fort Peck off Highway 117 on the Missouri River. This access point provides direct entry to the river near Fort Peck Reservoir, one of the largest man-made reservoirs in the United States.
**Facilities & Amenities:** The site offers a basic boat ramp suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. Primitive camping is available near the ramp, making it convenient for paddlers planning multi-day trips. The nearby area has additional camping options, including West End Campground and West End Tent and Trailer Campground (which offers reservations) within 10 miles. For more developed facilities and services, Fort Peck Marina is located about 18 miles away.
**Use Notes:** School Trust provides a straightforward launch point for accessing the Missouri River and Fort Peck Reservoir system. Paddlers should plan accordingly for primitive conditions at the ramp itself and bring supplies, as services are limited immediately at the site. This location works well as a base for exploring the broader Fort Peck Project area.
