About

Mill Falls Campground is a small, primitive camping area with 4 sites nestled along the South Fork of the Teton River in the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest. The campground sits at the end of Forest Road 109, deep in the Rocky Mountain Front where the mountains rise dramatically from the northern plains. The setting provides a remote camping experience with minimal amenities and light usage. The South Fork Teton trailhead is located just one mile west of the campground at the end of the road. A short hike from the trailhead leads to Our Lake, a pristine alpine lake situated near the boundary of the Bob Marshall Wilderness. Our Lake is an excellent location for wildlife viewing, particularly mountain goats which can be seen year-round, along with pikas and yellow-bellied marmots. The river offers fishing for brook, rainbow, and cutthroat trout, though all populations are low. Each campsite includes a picnic table and fire ring. No drinking water is available, and visitors must bring their own water supply. A vault toilet is provided. The campground operates on a pack-it-in, pack-it-out basis for trash. Bears frequent the area, and mandatory food storage in approved containers is required. The campground is free of charge and operates first-come, first-served when accessible.
