About

Heller Bar Alternate Boat Ramp is a boat launch in Washington, set within the Chief Joseph land unit and managed by State Fish and Wildlife. The ramp sits about 0.4 miles from Rogersburg, the nearest town, which makes it a close and simple starting point for a day on the water. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to launch. Typical averages from a weather station about 20 miles away show September highs near 79°F with lows around 52°F. The ramp sits roughly 600 feet above that station, so conditions here may run slightly cooler. For a change of pace in winter, Morning Song, a cross-country skiing spot, lies about 9 miles away.
