Nice wide and clean sites with flat surface topped with gravel. Campground is more or less level but the background views are just amazing. The campground has sites that are great for the larger RV's and one of the few along the 14/16/20 highway that has electricity. Most of the sites are open which works for solar but not so great in the summer with the heat. There are a lot of trees but they are a bit scrawny. The Shoshone River runs along the side of the campground.
The campground was named after a firefighter who died in the Blackwater Fire in 1937. There is a Fire Fighter Memorial about 1 1/2 miles from the campground
