Despite storms, most national forest campgrounds ready for summer
Crews across the Kootenai National Forest have been prepping campgrounds and recreation sites, making them safe and accessible in time for the quickly approaching summer season. While there are still roads and trails affected by the winter weather events, the majority of the Kootenai’s developed campgrounds will be fully operational this summer. According to forest officials, most campgrounds and boat launches were ready for use by Memorial Day, with water and garbage services available and camp hosts in place at select sites. Some of the higher elevation sites, including the Therriault Campgrounds near Eureka, are still inaccessible due to snow levels. Other campgrounds are accessible, but due to road washouts, alternate routes may need to be utilized. Specifically, the Howard Lake Campground and the Libby Creek Gold Panning area on the Libby Ranger District need to be accessed utilizing NFS Roads 385 and 4724 (Miller Creek). To view alternate routes, inaccessible forest areas, and cleared status of roads and trails, please utilize the Forest Inaccessible Roads & Trail Viewers. Several recreation sites, including cabins, lookouts, and group sites are available for reservation. Reservation sites are very popular, so book yours today by searching “Kootenai National Forest” at recreation.gov. Reminder that
