## Overview

Little Crater Lake Campground is one of the most scenic spots in Mt. Hood
National Forest and a very comfortable place to camp. It is not far from
Little Crater Lake, a cold, crystal clear, spring-fed pond. Also nearby is
Timothy Lake, where boaters and anglers enjoy recreating, all in the shadows
of Mt. Hood, Oregon's highest point.

## Recreation

A short path to view Little Crater Lake begins in the campground. It connects
to the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, which winds its way through the
area, past Timothy Lake and up the slopes of Mt. Hood. The long-distance trail
is popular among hikers and backpackers, stretches 2,650 miles through
California, Oregon and Washington, from Canada to Mexico.  
  
Visitors enjoy fishing at Timothy Lake, which covers roughly 1,400 acres.
Anglers will find Kokanee salmon and a variety of stocked trout.

## Facilities

The campground offers more than a dozen single-family sites for tent and RV
camping. Each site is equipped with a table and campfire ring with grill.
Accessible vault toilets are provided. A hand-pump water spigot is located
near the campground's entrance and is the only source of water within the
facility. Utility hookups are not available. Parking surfaces are grass, dirt
and irregularly shaped.

## Natural Features

The quiet campground is nestled in an evergreen forest at an elevation of
3,300 feet. Little Crater Lake is a geologic oddity, possibly formed by
artesian water forcing its way through soft, volcanic rock. The beautiful,
turquoise water is a wonder to see.  
  
The surrounding meadow is a great place for observing birds and other
wildlife. The region is ripe for huckleberry picking as well.

## Nearby Attractions

The Clackamas Lake Ranger Station Historic District is less than 10 miles from
the campground. It was built to house forest service workers in the early
1900s. The rustic architecture and historic nature of the buildings and the
surrounding area draws thousands of visitors each year.

## Overview

The North Arm Campground sits on the shores of Timothy Lake, in the shadow of
Oregon's Mt. Hood. The surrounding forest setting offers spectacular views,
wetlands, trails for exploration, and abundant fishing. This campground is
smaller and more secluded than the others on the south side of the lake.

**DRIVING NOTE:** There are two routes to North Arm Campground—one is rugged
and one is suitable for RVs and trailers. **Recommended Route:** From Sandy,
Oregon, travel east on Highway 26 for approximately 40 miles to Skyline Road /
FS Road 42. Turn right on Skyline Road, and continue south for about 9 miles.
Turn right on FS Road 57, and travel west for approximately 3 ½ miles,
crossing the dam at Timothy Lake. Take the 2nd right onto FS Road 5810. North
Arm is approximately 5 ½ miles from here. Keep right at all intersections—the
road becomes FS Road 5890. The campground is on the right.

## Recreation

Proximity to Timothy Lake allows campers to enjoy a variety of water-related
recreation, including boating and sailing, as well as swimming, windsurfing
and fishing. Anglers can expect a catch of kokanee salmon and a variety of
trout, as well as crayfish. This area has wonderful canoeing and kayaking
opportunities. A variety of trails are located in the area. The Timothy Lake
Trail is popular for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. The 12
miles of relatively level terrain loops trekkers around the lake, providing
scenic views of the area. It connects to the Pacific Crest National Scenic
Trail, a lengthy hike that extends across three states, from the borders of
Canada and Mexico. Portions of that trail also lead southwest to Clackamas
Lake Campground and a historic site. The Little Crater Lake is only a short
hike away. Little Crater Lake is a geologic oddity, possibly formed by
artesian water forcing its way through soft, volcanic rock. The beautiful,
turquoise water is a wonder to see. The surrounding meadow is a great place
for observing birds and other wildlife. The region is ripe for huckleberry
picking as well.

## Facilities

The campground offers 14 campsites for tent and RV camping. There are four

fire ring. Accessible vault toilets and drinking water are provided. A
campground host is also available onsite.

## Natural Features

The campground is situated on the northeastern shore of the roughly 1,400-acre
lake, at an elevation of 3,400 feet. Timothy Lake was created in 1956 as a
storage reservoir for the Oak Grove Hydroelectric Project. It is one of the
larger lakes in the Mt. Hood National Forest. The campground is nestled in a
