Mini camp 4.7

This boat-in or hike-in campground sits along the North Fork Clearwater River, managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers with sites available for $0-$10 per night. Campers access the area via the Big Eddy trail, with one reviewer noting the approximately 4.25-mile distance from Big Eddy and nearly 5-mile trek from Freeman Creek. The site provides basic amenities including toilets, picnic tables, and allows both campfires and pets.

Trees offer some wind protection while the surrounding water provides fishing opportunities from multiple shorelines. Temperatures can reach the 80s during the day with nighttime lows in the 50s. Nearby options include Mini Camp 4.8 just 0.2 miles north for those seeking alternative backcountry spots along the same trail system.

Stellar views and incredible setup

So many wonderful things to say about this spot—where to begin?! Approx. 4 1/4mi from Big Eddy and 4 7/8mi from Freeman Creek, this spot sits perfectly off the Bid Eddy trail. Trees provide a bit of wind coverage though we enjoyed perfect 80s in the day and warm 50s temps in the night. Friendly little birds visited us regularly and excellent fishing off any of the sides you are surrounded by. We set up here for two nights hiking in from Freeman and then hiked 8ish mi round trip to Big Eddy as a day hike on day 2. Don’t let the short distance fool you, this hike will test you, especially with a heavy pack, but SO worth it!
