West Launch, Pickle’s Butte

Honestly, West Launch at Pickle’s Butte is more of a boat access spot than a playground destination — don’t bring the kids expecting swings and slides. It’s a functional riverside launch point on the Snake River, and locals mostly use it for getting watercraft in and out. If you’re looking for actual play facilities in the Riverside area, you’ll want to keep searching. Worth knowing about, but not worth a special trip for the little ones.
