Summary

There are no established campsites, but several flat, open areas are suitable for tents or small RVs (no hookups). Amenities are minimal—no toilets or water—so campers must pack in and out. Fire rings may be present at some spots, but bring your own grill. The area is open and grassy with surrounding forest, offering peaceful solitude and scenic mountain views. Located near the South Fork of the Salmon River, it's great for fishing and hiking. Best visited in summer to early fall when access roads are snow-free and conditions are dry.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
