Briceburg Access
Briceburg Access
Briceburg Access is a day-use boat launch and put-in located 12 miles east of Mariposa on Highway 140 where it meets the Wild & Scenic Merced River, offering a gravel parking area, restrooms, picnic facilities, and access to Class III-IV whitewater.
Popular for both rafting put-ins/take-outs and fishing, the site features a historic 1926 suspension bridge providing access to downstream BLM campgrounds and swimming holes.
Swimming is only recommended when river flow is below 700 CFS; always wear a life jacket as the undammed river's flow varies dramatically by season.
