Hey looking to go boating up the Thompson near spences bridge. Just wondering if there's somewhere to launch below juniper beach but above the rapids. Sorry I'm sure this has been answered but I was unable to find it.

There is a launch by Martel (sp?) Island. Maybe 10k ish past Spence's bridge.

Hope you are in a jet boat. I would not recommend a prop at Martel of for several miles above that.

You can launch near train bridge on the nicola river then Drive 50m into to south Thompson. Or you can talk with Acacia Grove RV, there is a good access point there that Kumsheen rafting uses. you have to cross the tracks.
