Salmon-Challis National Forest. This high alpine campground sits at an
elevation of 9,160 feet in the Lemhi Mountain Range, 22 miles from Leadore,
Idaho.

## Recreation

trail # 342 which provides a gentle loop around the backside of the
campground. Try trail # 057 which takes you up to the steep ridge above the
campground (the trail to Meadow Lake Peak is not maintained by the Forest
Service).  
  
  
If a slower pace is appealing, pull up a chair and soak-up the incredible
views from the campground.
