Upper Elk River Recreation Site
A remote 4-site recreation site deep in the upper Elk River valley, offering open views of alpine meadows and avalanche chutes in a partially treed riverside setting. The 163.5 km forest service road approach from Elkford is a major commitment for a loaded touring bike.
