Vehicle access has re-opened at the Bighorn River access

BILLINGS – A partial closure that was in place at Grant Marsh Fishing Access Site (FAS) on the Bighorn River has been lifted. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks maintenance staff completed repairs to the road and boat ramp. Motorized access is once again allowed at the site.

High water flows on the river and flooded conditions led FWP to temporarily prohibit motorized access at Grant Marsh and other FASes in late June.

A partial closure remains in place at Arapooish FAS due to damages to the site from the flooded conditions. FWP maintenance crews are working on repairs to fully re-open the site as soon as possible. Walk-in access at this site is still allowed, but motorized access is currently prohibited.
