White Earth Group Use Shelter is located at White Earth Campground, just east of the town of Winston, Montana, on Canyon Ferry Reservoir. In 1805, the Lewis and Clark expedition passed through this region. On July 22, 1805, Sacagawea recognizes the country and assures the men that the three forks of the Missouri were of no great distance. This news gave the expedition hope in the anticipation of soon reaching the headwaters of the Missouri River.
Canyon Ferry Reservoir offers a wide range of year-round recreational opportunities. Water related activities include everything from swimming and fishing to sailing and motor-boating. Canoeists and kayakers explore the many quiet backwater bays. Jet skiers, windsurfers and water skiers skim the summer waves, while winter draws ice fishermen and ice skaters.
White Earth Group Use Shelter is 30' X 44' shelter with electrical power. The shelter has 8 picnic tables, 5 campsites and an accessible vault toilet. White Earth Campground has 36 designated campsites, a boat ramp, and a parking area for boat trailers. During the peak summer months services include vault toilets, potable water, trash, recycling containers and campground hosts.
White Earth Campground sits along the banks of Canyon Ferry Reservoir in the open valley between the Big Belt and Elkhorn mountain ranges.
White Earth Group Use Shelter is located halfway between Yellowstone National Park and Glacier National Park. The city of Helena, MT, the state's capital, is 25 miles away. For up-to-date events visit[www.helenamt.com/](http://www.helenamt.com/)

Great little campground. No hookups, but only yards away from the water. Beautiful spot. Campsite 24 is the best.
The campground is looking great this year. The site pads are very nice and the new trees are looking great. We always look forward to our regular guests coming back as well as all the new guests we get to meet. We call this home and hope all our guests enjoy their visit here with us. Enjoyable fishing, swimming, boating and relaxing to be had by all.
Probably one of my favorite campgrounds around Canyon Ferry Reservoir. Limited spaces which means limited amount of people. The bathrooms are usually very clean. There's a boat launch, and you can beach a boat easily out of the wind. It's good fishing from shore as well.
Nice spot to camp by the lake. Restrooms are Porta potty. Rangers do not sell wood. Water spigot near bathrooms. It's pitch dark at night and difficult to find campgrounds so be prepared. There's also a very long road to get to the campgrounds. Boat and RV connections are available.
What a great surprise! After driving 5 miles on a dirt road, over a hill, and there sits a beautiful lake!! No hook ups, vault toilets, but for $10 a night ($5 if you have America the Beautiful pass), you have a beautiful lake view.
