Great BLM campground

We stayed here on our way to the Arctic Ocean and again on the way back. Coldfoot AK is close as is the Arctic Interagency Visitor Center

Quiet, tidy

BLM has the most well-maintained campgrounds in Alaska, and Marion Creek is among the tidiest.  It's very clean and quiet, with reasonable privacy between spots and well-placed pit toilets and bear-proof trash cans.  The surrounding mountains are quite beautiful, and Marion Creek itself is lovely and looks very fishy (although I did not fish while there).  I stayed two nights, and would happily stay there again while traveling the Dalton.
