Beautiful Waist deep Creek

There are 6 sites all with picnic tables and fire rings with cooking grates. The sites all have access to the water and there is a single vaulted toilet. The tp was stocked and the sites were clean.

Small hidden campground on edge of the Elkhorn Moutains

Bumped in to this nice little campground after hiking in the adjacent Elkhorn Mountains.  This is a BLM campground with 8 sites, each having a metal fire ring and picnic tables.  The campground is served by one vault toilet.  No water of trash service at this free campground.  The campground sits along Crow Creek.  No one was at the campground during my visit.  Finding information about this campground was hard, it does not show up on the BLM's interactive map, and once found on the BLM site you will not receive any helpful information.  To find the campground turn east off of US Hwy 287 on to State highway 285 (near Toston, MT) heading towards Radersburg.  At Radersburg the Highway will end an the road will turn to dirt and become Crow Creek Road.  Continue down this well maintained dirt road until your reach the sign for Crow Creek Campground.  Since the sign indicating the turn for the campground is the only indication that a campground is even in the area this might just be a quiet get away with few other campers.
