CLARKSTON – Fairweather Fishing Access Site has reopened.

The site was closed temporarily starting in January due to ice jams and flooding. Those conditions have improved, allowing the site to reopen to public access.

Fairweather Fishing Access Site is along the Missouri River, about 8 miles downstream of Missouri Headwaters State Park.

Recreationists are encouraged to use caution when visiting rivers because of unseen hazards, as well as flow and ice conditions that can change suddenly. For more information about river recreation safety, visit fwp.mt.gov/activities/boating/river-ethics.
