Remote and vehicle-accessible, this dispersed camping area sits within Payette National Forest near the Oregon-Idaho border. The Forest Service maintains this trailhead location primarily for backcountry access, with camping spots scattered along forest roads rather than in designated sites.
Campers arrive via forest roads to find undeveloped camping with no facilities or services provided. The no-pets policy sets this location apart from most dispersed camping areas. Spring Creek Campground lies 4.1 miles south for those wanting developed amenities. The trailhead serves hikers heading into the surrounding national forest backcountry.
