Indian Meadows Trailhead is the trailhead for two trails in to the Helena National Forest Scapegoat Wilderness Area, plus it features a camping area with picnic tables and metal fire rings along with a vault toilet. The camping loop has five developed sites with tables and fire rings. The area serves as the trail head for two trails, Mainline Trail #481 and Landers Fork Trail #438. Each trail head has a small parking area, but a very large parking are is between the two to allow for additional parking and for horse trailer parking. No water or trash service is available at the site, but can be obtained at the Copper Creek campground a few miles away. Cost is FREE!
