West Fork of Bitterroot

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

A large pullout on the West Fork of the Bitterroot River, this dispersed site fits two camps side by side on a bend in the river. It's free and shady. Anglers have landed cutthroat and rainbow trout in the 10–12 inch range directly from the bank, and a few stone fire pits are already in place. Campers exploring campgrounds near Conner will also find developed options nearby, including Rombo Creek Campground a short distance up the road.
