Deadman Hole

 Though this campground sits along the highway it is easier to tolerate noise when its free! 

The campground loop is gravel and has “pull next to” (bump out?) type sites with covered picnic table and a fire pit. There are also pit toilets and a hand pump water spigot. There is also a boat ramp and a day use area. 

The river is very shallow and the bank is quite muddy -- our little dog sank up to her belly. 

No privacy here and lots of road noise but you get to see the river and the meandering cows across the river. 

Did not see any wildlife unless you count the swarms of tiny bugs of the variety that squeeze their little bug bodies through your screens. 

Zero cell reception ATT, verizon or TMobile. The WeBoost was able to give us bars of LTE but still was not very usable.

Good for an overnight but not much around to keep us occupied for anything longer.

Pros: *Views for miles *Steps from the Salmon River *Boat launch for rafting,kayaking,fishing *Covered picnic table *Generous spacing between sites *Serious star gazing opportunities

• Easy drive to Challis for supplies

Cons: *No shade *Close to road, so some road noise.

• No services, except a vault toilet, but with views like this, who cares.

Pros out weigh the cons for us. 2 thumbs up.
