KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!
Dip sites will be used on calmer water in nearby sections of the river. Fire personel will be stationed at these sites to advise recreationists about the fire suppression work and the presence of helicopters on the river. Boaters using the river should be cautious and must pull over when instructed by fire personel. Boats should pull to the side of the river until the dip is completed, stay close together, and listen to instructions. Those using fishing access sites along the Clark Fork must also keep boat ramps and launch sites clear of vehicles and open for fire crew use.
