About
Jack Creek Campground is a primitive, no-fee campground located in the Mountain City-Ruby Mountains-Jarbidge Ranger District of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest in northeastern Nevada. Situated at 6,500 feet elevation, the campground occupies a historic area with sites spread among open cottonwood groves along Jack Creek. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no potable water; campers must bring their own water supply. This is a pack-it-out site, meaning no trash service is provided. Dogs are permitted but must remain leashed. The area sees moderate use overall but fills up during hunting season in fall. Activities include fishing in Jack Creek, hiking, mountain biking, and OHV riding on nearby trails.
Directions
Jack Creek Campground is located on County Road 732, approximately 4 miles east of State Highway 226 and approximately 15 miles west of State Highway 225.
