About
Limber Luke Campground is a rustic trailhead campground situated at 5,400 feet elevation in the Highway 14 Corridor of the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests. Located approximately 14 miles from Elk City, Idaho, this free facility provides access to Anderson Butte National Recreation Trail (#505) and surrounding backcountry. The campground offers basic amenities including a vault toilet, a fire ring, and a stock loading ramp for equestrian users. Parking accommodates five camper vehicles. Set in open timber, the site attracts big game hunters during hunting season and serves as a staging area for OHV trips and day hikes into the surrounding forest. This is a pack-it-in, pack-it-out facility with no potable water or trash services. Campers should arrive fully self-sufficient with their own water supply and prepared to haul out all garbage. The operating season typically begins in June, with access dependent on road and weather conditions.
