Broken canoe in river along US 89 in Park County not seriously investigated | Bozeman

LIVINGSTON, Montana – The Fire Chiefs Report was posted on Facebook Sunday to warn drivers on U.S. Highway 89 of a situation already known to fire officials.

In Park County, near mile marker 49 on U.S. Highway 89 South, half of a red canoe lies in the river near the canal gate.

According to the post signed by Assistant Chief Dell, the canoe had been at that location for about two weeks and the dispatch center had received several calls about it.

Officials believe the canoe broke loose upstream and poses no threat to the public. Please do not call the dispatch center to report this.
