## 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.

Mountains, nestled in a mixed forest of conifers and hardwoods, including

forest in the scenic Cascade Mountains of Oregon. A historic guard station was

water springs and several minor outlets in the area.

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

Lockaby Campground is ideally located next to the Wild and Scenic Clackamas
River in the lush, green mountains of northern Oregon. It provides access to
some of the area's greatest whitewater rafting, as well as a famous place to
fish. Whether it is relaxation or recreation, there's something for everyone
at the campground.

## 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. Scenic driving is also available on the West
Cascades Scenic Byway, which travels alongside the river.

## Facilities

The campground offers more than two dozen single-family sites for tent and RV
camping, though RVs over 16 feet are not recommended due to the steep terrain
within the facility. Each site is equipped with a table and campfire ring with
grill. Accessible vault toilets and drinking water are provided, but no
hookups are available. Parking surfaces are paved and gravel.

## Natural Features

The campground is situated along the river at an elevation of about 900 feet
in Mt. Hood National Forest. Most campsites are within a dense stand of cedar
trees overlooking the river. Sites are fairly close together and there is very
little vegetation on the forest floor.  
  
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 a mile
south of the campground. It provides a convenient river launch for kayaks,
canoes and rafts.  
  
Just below nearby Indian Henry Campground, the Clackamas River offers 12.5
miles of class III-IV whitewater. The Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival is
hosted annually in May, attracting rafters from all over the country.

Lost Lake Resort And Campground

## 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,

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

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

## Overview

Olallie Lake Guard Station Cabin gives campers an old-fashioned cabin
experience with its well-preserved features, including a massive rock chimney,
interior wood and hand-wrought iron work. It provides access to a number of
outdoor recreation opportunities as well as its namesake lake. The cabin is at
nearly 5,000 feet so the season can be delayed by late snows which restricts
cabin access.

## Recreation

The Olallie Lake Guard Station Cabin is located in the heart of the Olallie
Lake Scenic Area which has several lakes and miles of trails including the
Pacific Crest Trail located adjacent to the cabin. Olallie Lake (240 arces in
size) has non-motorized boating and excellent fishing. Rental row boats are
available at the nearby Olallie Resort. The lake is stocked with rainbow
trout. Swimming is allowed in all lakes except Olallie Lake. Some of the
trails and most of the graveled roads are open for mountain biking.

## Facilities

The four-room guard station has a kitchen, living room with two futon couches,
a bunk bedroom and a loft with a queen bed. The cabin sleeps up to eight
people. It has propane lights, a propane refrigerator, stove and oven, basic
cooking pots, pans, dishes and eating utensils. A table and chairs is
provided. A wood stove is available for heat. Firewood is provided. The cabin
has a limited water supply to the kitchen sink with hot and cold water. A
vault toilet is located about 75 feet from the cabin and is used by others.
Cell phone coverage is not available at the cabin and very spotty in the
entire Olallie Lake Scenic Area.

Guests will need to bring sleeping bags or bedding, towels and wash cloths,
paper towels, food and personal gear, as well as a flashlight or lantern for
emergencies, a first aid kit, insect repellent (a must!), sunscreen and dish
soap, among other necessities. Please bring garbage bags and clean the

cabin for the Forest Service. We are just next door and have personel onsite

Guests can access the cabin by vehicle. Higher clearance or 4wd is preferable,
but the cabin is accessible to 2wd passenger cars if they drive slow. Road
conditions can be hampered by early or late snows. Guests are responsible for
their own travel arrangements and safety..

## Natural Features

This historically significant, two-story cabin was built by the Civilian
Conservation Corps in the 1930’s for the Forest Ranger that patrolled the
area. It is a classic example of the Forest Service rustic architectural style
