About This Access Site
Vernon Bridge provides public access to the Henreys Fork of the Snake River, a scenic and popular destination for kayakers, canoeists, and anglers. Located near Saint Anthony in Fremont County, this boat ramp allows you to access both upstream and downstream sections of the river. Note that the access road passes through a campground—plan accordingly when arriving. The area offers views of the Grand Tetons and flows through fertile farmlands, making it an attractive paddling destination.

**Key Information for Paddlers:** Upstream of Vernon Bridge, motorized boats are prohibited, making this stretch ideal for kayaks and canoes. Paddlers can row upstream through the estuary and return to the same put-in location. All boat ramps are open below the bridge if you prefer downstream paddling. The Henreys Fork is known for excellent fishing conditions, suggesting you may encounter anglers, so be courteous and stay alert. This is a popular access point, so arriving early is recommended during peak season.
