Launching boats on the City of McCall’s Payette Lake boat ramp will cost twice as much this summer for anyone who doesn’t live in Idaho. Last week, the McCall City Council approved changes to the city’s boat ramp fees, which were charged for the first time last summer. Idaho residents will continue paying $15 for a day pass or $100 for a season pass, while out-of-state residents will now pay $30 for a day pass and $300 for a season pass.
