Campground

Facilities

The campground offers several single-family sites each equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring with grill. Vault toilets, drinking water from a hand pump and trash collection are provided. The nearest dump station is 20 miles away on Powder River Pass.

Natural Features

Located at 8,100 feet in elevation, the campground is situated in a densely forested area of lodgepole pine. Campsites are located on a creek and meadow in a peaceful and remote setting. Temperatures can drop significantly once the sun goes down. Summer daytime temperatures range from the 60s-90s, with nighttime temperatures down to the 50s. June is sometimes rainy while the rest of the summer has fair, clear, sunny days. Thunderstorms and snowstorms can arise at any time. Autumn temperatures are cool with frosts by mid-September.

Recreation

Scenic off-highway driving is available on nearby Elgin Park, Pole Creek and Crazy Woman Canyon Roads. Hiking and mountain biking are allowed on these roads as well. ATV trails are adjacent to camp. Many additional hiking trails are available in the Cloud Peak Wilderness. Fishing is popular in the campground and nearby streams and lakes.
