Cessna 172 XP comes upriver, lands, and taxis to the city boat dock so it could re-fuel. Float only planes have few options in Central Montana - Lake Elwell/Tiber dam, about 50 miles NW is another, but services may be limited. Landings are pretty rare here in Ft Benton, maybe 1 a year. The river is often very shallow. A plane's floats were damaged from low water a few years ago.
Nice landing!

That's BEFA's (former) float plane.... wow... that'd be a long flight from Renton to Ft. Benton
