## Overview

Meadow Lake Campground is located on the Leadore Ranger District of the
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

There's no lack of recreational opportunities around Meadow Lake Campground.
The lake is stocked twice a year so the fish are always biting. Fish from the
bank or carry your boat down to the lake and try from the water, as there is
no boat ramp or boat dock at the lake.  
  
  
Hiking opportunities are available right out of the campground and include
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.
