About
The 7 campsites at the Caribou Campground are first-come, first-served and are located in a pine overstory near the Sawtooth National Recreation Area Visitor Center. The popular trail heads in the area are North Fork, West Fork, East Fork and Murdock Creek. The trails in Northfork Canyon lead to the Hemingway-Boulder Wilderness Area, which has views of Ryan Peak, Kent Peak, Glassford peak and Silver Peak in the Hemingway-Boulder mountains. This is a great place for fishing, hiking, and viewing wildlife. RV's and trailers are not recommended for this campground because of the inability to turn around.
