West Fork Campground
About this site
West Fork Campground is a Bureau of Land Management facility located at milepost 49 of the Taylor Highway, serving as the southernmost access point to the 400-mile Fortymile National Wild and Scenic River System. The campground comprises two distinct loops: a smaller eastern loop with 7 pull-through spaces and a larger western loop with 18 back-in or pull-in campsites, all situated on compacted gravel surfaces surrounded by spruce forest. The campground is situated on the banks of the West Fork of the Fortymile River and is surrounded by lush forests and rolling hills. Amenities include picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets. Potable water is routinely hauled in during summer months. The campground is popular for fishing in the West Fork of the Fortymile River and offers several hiking trails nearby. A 10-day stay limit is enforced, and payment is collected via iron ranger or the Recreation.gov Scan & Pay mobile app. The campground is open year-round.
