Managed by Idaho Department of Lands, Mores Creek by Steamboat Gulch sits just over a mile from Idaho City and draws a regular mix of RVs and ATVs alongside tent campers. Sites are dispersed and free, most with rock campfire rings near a shallow creek. No restrooms on site. Cell service is available, and the area gets busy enough that it can feel more like an RV corridor than backcountry camping. Cowboy Campground is a nearby alternative worth considering.
