Access map
Put-in
Fish Creek ConfluenceRiverBrain publishes the endpoint coordinates and all-vehicle descriptions, but both are small dirt roadside lots rather than maintained boat ramps.
Take-out
Clear Creek Road valley accessConfirm current road status and legal parking; Utah DWR prohibits crossing posted private land or walking private streambeds to reach public water.
Road shuttle
Stage the Clear Creek Road dirt-lot take-out first, then drive back to the Fish Creek Confluence access. Both endpoints are roadside dirt-lot anchors with no ramp, water, or camping; confirm road condition and legal parking before launching.
Additional access notes
- Use the signed road corridor and do not infer public access from nearby private parcels, fences, or informal pullouts.
- The route source is community-maintained; same-day visual scouting is required because access, wood, fences, and diversion hazards can change.
More route and safety guidance
- Use the 200 cfs minimum-only gate from the route source and scout current wood, fences, diversion structures, and bridge clearances before committing.
- The dirt-lot access points are roadside anchors with no ramp, water, or camping. Confirm current road condition and legal parking, stay on the road corridor, and do not cross private land.
- Clear Creek can become dangerous during snowmelt or heavy rain; cold water and limited eddies make a swim consequential.
