          Friendly town and people

          Here for 4 days and loved all the town people and visitors. It is small town but came for nature and relaxation that is just what we got. Bears yes couple in camp but they stayed their distance and of coarse humans did too. This is now main character in my dreams on next trip up north.

          Bare Necessities

          Camp Run-A-Muck is located in the ghost town of Hyder, Alaska. It is in the rainforest so surroundings are mountains and lush green trees and plants. The main attraction in Hyder is the bear viewing platform where brown bears and black bears (among other wildlife) gather for the salmon run in late summer/early fall. Black bears are commonly seen in and around town including the campground. Most brown bears stay further away near the bear viewing area a few miles up the road. This campground does have a laundry, toilets (2), and showers (2). It is truly the bare necessities here but everything you need if you come prepared to stay a few nights in this ghost town.
