Lake McGregor Boat Launch is Use at your own Risk
The Boat Launch pad at Lake McGregor has had pieces shift and move, which may damage to your equipment during launch.
Removal of the pad is not possible at this time due to water levels.
Reconstruction of the launch is planned for this fall.

Been fishing out of a tinner for the past few weeks. This fall has been glorious.
It's been rare to see a boat out. Can't figure out why .......
I took some pics of the launch. A couple didn't turn out because of glare.
The red line would represent the middle of the launch. In years past, there would be two sets of concrete slabs at the launch. They're not that wide so most boats would back right down the middle where the red line is.
The blue line represents approximately where the left edge of the launch should be. The slabs on the left side of the launch have been pushed aside.
The red dot and green dot are there to give some orientation to the pictures. The red dot is beside a boulder that would take out most trailer axles. It is sitting about 10 feet back from the water line.
The green dot is sitting on a 1/2 slab that has been pushed out of position.
The launch is an absolute mess. I can't imagine launching a boat here. The boulders that you see have been placed in previous years to fill the gaps where the slabs have shifted out of place.
The water level is down a couple feet from typical levels
