Very nice, very well kept campground with virgin Ponderosa Pine trees. Pit toilets were cleaned daily, at least, and really nice campground hosts. Many of the sites have long driveways.Note the campground is located 29 miles off of US93, but the State Highway that leads to it is in pretty good shape. There are some hiking opportunities south of the campground, but two of the trails require a wet foot crossing of the West Fork of the Bitterroot River. Back up towards US 93, there are several USFS roads that lead to trailheads for the high country. If you want to get away from it all, this is YOUR place.

Sites were very clean. Pit vaults were very clean. Love the dog poop pick up bags all around! Nice and quiet.

I have camped at Forest Service campgrounds my whole life of 62 years. Alta is my favorite campground because of its cleanliness and design of the sites. The bathrooms are the best-smelling in the entire country. I have camped there every year over the last four years and plan to again this summer. The camp hosts are so welcoming and hospitable they make you feel like you are family. We circle the entire Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness on Side-by-Sides. An 800 mile trip over 8 days. This summer will be our fifth year and the highlight of our camping is Alta. Thanks for doing such a great job.
