Within Klamath National Forest, Mulebridge Campground sits two miles up a gravel road from the main Forks of Salmon route. The US Forest Service manages this May-through-October site, which features three fire rings rather than defined camping spots. The North Fork of Salmon River runs directly alongside the camping area, providing water access and fishing opportunities.
Campers should expect no cell service and pack out all trash, as no collection service operates here. The campground includes a clean pit toilet and sees minimal traffic beyond occasional forest service and trail crew vehicles. Nine privately-owned cabins occupy the uphill side of the area. Access requires navigating single-lane mountain roads with significant drop-offs, making this spot better suited for experienced mountain drivers comfortable with challenging terrain.
