GENERAL COMMENTS:
The elevation is 5,800 ft.
The campground, near the northeastern portion of the Palisades
Reservoir, is composed of two sections. The larger section is
located across from the group campground which is used for
overflow when not reserved. This section has widely spaced
camping sites among sagebrush, Aspen and Douglas fir. The
interior road in this section is tear-drop shaped making a second
pass-through difficult for large RVs. The smaller section is a
single loop in an open field next to Big Elk Creek. The
campground is well away from the traffic noise of US Rt. 26 and
has no direct access to the Palisades Reservoir.

NEAREST CITY/TOWN: Irwin
RESERVATIONS: 1-877-444-6777DIRECTIONS:
From Irwin, ID, take US Rt. 26 east 2.5 miles to campground sign.
Turn right at sign, crossing over the Palisades Reservoir Dam,
and go 1.1 miles to campground.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
The elevation is 5,800 ft.
The campground, adjacent to northern end of the Palisades
Reservoir and located on a mountainside, is composed of three
loops - A, B and C. Loops A and B can accommodate RVs and tents
with many sites wide enough for a boat trailer. The camping
sites in these loops are more open, some of which are terraced
with tent pads. Some have a view of Palisades Reservoir. Loop C
is restricted to tents and slide-in RVs. It is furthest up the
mountainside with some sites having great views of the reservoir.
The sites in this loop are heavily wooded - none are in the open.
The campground is a boater's paradise, and as a result, it is
very popular and full most weekends. It's a good idea to make
reservations if camping on a weekend.
The campground is loaded with berries, namely huckleberries,
raspberries (in Loop C), serviceberries and snowberries.
Although overall this is a very nice campground, Loop C is
without a doubt the nicest of the three loops. Except for Loop
C, privacy between sites is minimal to fair.

RANGER DISTRICT: Palisades
NEAREST CITY/TOWN: Swan Valley
RESERVATIONS: 1-877-444-6777 or make on-line reservation
DIRECTIONS:
From Swan Valley, ID, take US Rt. 26 west 2.9 miles to Falls
campground sign (Forest Rt. 076). Turn left at sign onto Rt. 076
(dirt and gravel) and go 2.4 miles to another campground sign.
Turn left at sign and go 0.1 miles to campground.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
The elevation is 5,100 ft.
The campground is a large single loop through a stand of tall
Cottonwoods and is located where Falls Creek joins the Snake
River. None of the sites have a view of the river. The camping
sites are well spaced, and with the height of the Cottonwoods,
shrubs and grass, privacy is very good. Although this section of
the river does not offer whitewater sports, it can provide
pleasant float trips for the whole family, especially in the
autumn under fall colors.
NOTE: This campground is actually in the Caribou National Forest,
but it is administered by the Palisades Ranger District of the
Targhee National Forest.

middlestory and overstory of mixed conifers and shrubs. The
interior road in this section is very tight making it well suited
for tenters. The second or lower section of the campground

shoreline. This section contains all the pull-throughs and boat
ramp with most of the camping sites having a view of the
reservoir. A heavy middlestory in both sections provides
excellent privacy.

Camping in Yellowstone is
an awesome experience but there are a few things
to be careful of. Wild animals, especially females
with young, are unpredictable. Keep a safe distance
from all wildlife. Each year a number of park visitors
are injured by wildlife when approaching too closely.
Approaching on foot within 100 yards (91 m) of bears
or within 25 yards (23 m) of other wildlife is prohibited.
Please use roadside pullouts when viewing wildlife.
Use binoculars or telephoto lenses for safe viewing
and to avoid disturbing them. By being sensitive
to its needs, you will see more of an animal's natural
behavior and activity. If you cause an animal to
move, you are too close!
