US Forest Service · Montana

Clark Fork River Area in Montana. Ringed marker is this site; the other dots are the 803 public campsites we map in Montana.

The Clark Fork River Area (Cabinet Ranger District) is bordered by the Idaho line on the west and the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness on the east. The Clark Fork River flows north and west through the District, and the Bull and Vermilion Rivers join it from the north. Rugged peaks ranging in elevation from 6000-8700 feet overlook the valley bottom. Almost ½ million acres of National Forest lands offer a full range of year-round recreational opportunities.
