| Where is the best place to launch in Taber , I will be there next month with my boat and want to take my daughter & grandchildren for a rip. Can you launch at the campsite on the Oldman ? Are there any runnable rivers in the foothills west of Pincher Creek , Castle , Milk , Oldman ? |

It would be nice if you could post directions and a few pictures of the launch site in the Boat Launch forum!

| The boat launch is on the north side of the bridge at the M.D of Taber Municipal Park. It is steep, and if you need lots of water to launch this spot will not work.I would like to take a run up the Oldman upstream of Three Rivers Res. If a guy did it at high water you should be able to get to the gap at the Livingstone mountains. |

I would be up for a run, took my boat out of storage today. I stopped at the launch just north of the highway yesterday and i don't think i could get my boat in or out of there its a 2' drop into the water? Pm me if you are going and looking for another boat
cheers |
