Summary
There are no established campsites—campers choose spots along the river or near forest roads. No reservations or permits are required, and camping is free. Amenities are minimal: no toilets, no drinking water, and no hookups. Some sites have fire rings; picnic tables are rare. RVs can access the area via gravel roads, but it's best suited for tents and smaller rigs. Enjoy fishing, wildlife viewing, and access to nearby trails like the Thompson River Trail. Best visited May–October for mild weather and clear mountain views.

Camping Essential Practices
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.
