About
Agency Creek Campground is a primitive Bureau of Land Management campground with 4 sites, nestled along the Lewis and Clark National Backcountry Byway approximately 27 miles from Salmon, Idaho. The campground occupies a secluded, arid landscape near the intersection of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail and the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. A memorial to Sacajawea is located at the top of the nearby pass. The area offers diverse recreation including hiking, biking, OHV riding, hunting, picnicking, and wildlife viewing. The nearby Salmon River provides opportunities for fishing (steelhead, rainbow, and cutthroat trout) and floating. Visitors are asked to be respectful of the cultural and historical items found throughout this historically significant area. The campground is accessed via a narrow, single-lane gravel road with tight corners and steep sections branching off from Highway 28. This road is not well-suited for large RVs or trailers. The area experiences winter motorized travel restrictions from December 16 through April 30 to protect big game winter habitat.
Directions
From Salmon, Idaho, travel 23 miles southeast on ID-28 to Tendoy. Turn east and follow the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway for 4 miles to the campground.
