Nicest Primitive camp in Monument

This is the nicest primitive camp we stopped at during our canoe trip through the Upper Missouri Breaks National Monument. Located at river mile 122.6 this site has great camp spots underneath large mature cottonwoods. The site has two fire rings with plenty of bare ground around them. Goods tent sites are easy to find. The large cottonwoods give plenty of shade from the sun. Normally don't rate primitive sites above a 3 but every one in our group gave it a 4.
