Description

Bureau of Land Management

Located next to the Powder River, this site contains a semi-developed, yet primitive, campground popular for fall hunting camps, but beautiful to camp in year round. BLM managed lands are nearby providing hunting and many other recreational activities. Moorhead Campground is also a Special Recreation Management Area (SRMA) that has become a very popular area for many recreationists seeking to get away from it all!

Beautiful and secluded

Camped here last year beginning of june. A group of about 20 of us. We all tent camped but there were two huge RVs that came in the second night we were there and still plenty of ground to be separated. Roughly I'd say theres 10 to 20 camping spots? Closer to 10, with fire rings, and one bathroom, a outhouse more less... has cement tables, and a spout with spring water coming out. Not sure if it's safe to drink, bring your own water just incase :) the campground is set up on on the east side of moorhead road. Across the bridge of the river. But beware for future campers coming from the north to Camp here, they closed the bridge on moorhead rd. The bridge isnt safe enough to cross with a vehicle. Can still walk across. So to get here you have to go down on the west side of the river on powder river rd :) ask anyone in broadus,mt. If unsure how to safely get there. The campground is quiet and secluded. With cliffs on the south and east side. Beautiful scenery in the early summer:)
