The site is located on the Lower Salmon River. It is a frequent put-in spot for floating the Lower Salmon River via raft, kayak, or jet boat. The site is largely undeveloped and is near large, sandy beaches and has easy access to the Salmon River. BLM recreation sites also on this stretch of river are Lucile, Old Lucile, Shorts Bar, Slate Creek, Skookumchuck, White Bird, Hammer Creek and Pine Bar. Be sure to check those sites for more information and amenities for boat ramps or camping. For river maps, authorized outfitters and shuttle services, see the links below.

Nice sandy beach, several camp sites. Lots of rocks to look at. Pretty surroundings. Few trees for shade. Wasn't very crowded today.
Always fun to primitive camp and watch the rafters float by. Even the port potty was in decent shape. Be prepared for a ton of bugs though.
A free campsite right on the river. This was well worth the visit. Gosh, you Idahoans have been hiding this place. Spectacular.
