## Overview

Armstrong Campground is a small but beautiful place to camp, right on the edge
of the Clackamas Wild and Scenic River. The river flows right by spacious,
lush, family-friendly campsites, giving visitors plenty of access to the
river, as well as to the surrounding forest.

## Recreation

Fishing is very popular in the Clackamas River and anglers can expect a catch
of winter steelhead, spring chinook and late summer coho salmon, as well as
other species of freshwater fish. The Clackamas contains miles of wild water
as it bends and drops through the scenic Cascade Range, creating prime
whitewater rafting opportunities.  
  
A hiking trail follows the river north and south and begins about a mile away
at Fish Creek Campground.

## Facilities

The campground offers single-family sites available mostly for tent camping,
but a few sites having space for RVs. Larger RVs may have trouble navigating
the roads within the facility. An overflow parking area is available.  
  
Each site is equipped with a table and campfire ring with grill. Accessible
vault toilets and drinking water are provided. No hookups are available.
Parking surfaces are gravel and dirt.

## Natural Features

The campground is located in Mt. Hood National Forest at an elevation of about
870 feet. A variety of ferns, shrubs and grasses cover the forest floor and
provide some privacy between sites. While the campground is close to the road,
the sound of the river blocks most of the noise.  
  
The forest provides habitat for the federally protected bald eagle and
northern spotted owl, as well as an occasional peregrine falcon. A variety of
wildlife makes its home in the area.

## Nearby Attractions

A boat ramp is available at Fish Creek Campground, which is less than half a
mile south of the campground. It is a convenient place to launch kayaks,
canoes or other boats on the river.  
  
Just below Indian Henry Campground, the Clackamas River offers 12.5 miles of
class III-IV whitewater. The Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival is hosted
annually on the river, attracting rafters from all over the country.

Located on Forest Creek. Just follow Forest Road 4885 south about 2.5 miles to
the White River. To the east you can ride up to Boulder Point and get a look
around; to the west you reach the White River.

The campground itself is located on the historic Barlow Road (Forest Road
3530). Although many pioneers passed by this site, few actually camped here.
They did water their stock and themselves in the creek and possibly stopped
here briefly on the last leg of their long journey to the fertile valleys west
of the Cascades.

Located on the high and lovely Horseshoe Lake, just south of Monon Lake in the
Olallie Scenic Area, Horseshoe Lake Campground is sandwiched between the
shoreline of Horseshoe Lake and Forest Service Road 4220. Due to the area's
remote nature, although the campsites are just off of FSR 4220, few vehicles
pass by which makes this outdoor recreation area so special. The lake, as the
name implies, is horseshoe-shaped with a small channel leading to the lake's
southern half. Recreational activities include hiking, fishing, and non-
motorized boating.

## Overview

**Campground closed due to the 2020 Riverside Wildfire**

Indian Henry Campground is located in the Mount Hood National Forest, along
the scenic Clackamas River. The campground is a great location for relaxation
and a spectacular outdoor experience, providing ample access to the river and
the surrounding wilderness, as well as other scenic spots in the area.

## Recreation

The family-friendly Clackamas River Trail is popular for hiking and mountain
biking and begins at the upper end of the campground. It extends about 8 miles
and climbs about 450 feet in elevation along the way. It is available year-
round, but may be covered in snow during winter months. The Indian Henry
Trail, which trolls through the forest, is also located near the campground.  
  
Fishing is very popular in the nearby river and anglers can expect a catch of
winter steelhead, spring chinook and late summer kokanee salmon, as well as
other species of freshwater fish. Whitewater rafting is also enjoyed by
visitors to the area. The Clackamas River provides miles of wild water as it
bends through the scenic Cascade range.

## Facilities

The large campground offers dozens of single-family campsites for tent and RV
camping. Tent-only sites are available for reservation, while the rest of the
sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis.  
  
Each site is equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. A dump
station is located within the campground. Parking surfaces are mostly paved.
Accessible flush toilets and drinking water are also provided.

## Natural Features

The campground is situated at an elevation of 1,249 feet, in Oregon's Cascade
Mountains, nestled in a mixed forest of conifers and hardwoods, including
grand old Douglas firs and a variety of evergreens. A thick gathering of ferns
and ivy increase privacy between campsites. Some sites overlook the river and
others neighbor a mountain creek.

## Nearby Attractions

The picturesque, blue-green Surprise Lake is located not far from the
campground, up a steep climb. It is most popular for fishing, as the lake
isn't large enough for motorized boats.  
  
The Bagby Hot Springs are located about 20 miles southwest of the campground.
A popular site for soaking and relaxation, the springs are in a heavily wooded
forest in the scenic Cascade Mountains of Oregon. A historic guard station was
built there in 1913 and the available bathhouses are fed by three major hot
water springs and several minor outlets in the area.
