Beware mosquitos

Great place to stop if you are interested in fishing or sightseeing. The camping area itself is not that awesome, and the mosquitos are intense.

Free camping not far from Craters of the Moon

We stayed at Silver Creek West when we were unable to get a campsite at Craters of the Moon.  Silver Creek is a disperse camping area as no established sites are in the area, but their are several rock fire rings in the area.  The site does have a vault toiler.  Camping is free.  Plenty of flat ground for your tent.  We were visited by a moose as we packed up camp in the morning.  No water or trash service so come prepared.

Solid Little Fish Camp

This is not a fancy campground but a solid place to set up a fish camp next to Silver Creek.  The entire area was clean and the placement of the campers that were already there were fairly dispersed.  There is a single pit toilet available but really no other amenities.

I was able to connect on AT&T (two bars) but the data speeds were fairly low and spotty at times.
