Jim Moore's Campsite

Jim Moore's Place is a historic homestead with nine hand-hewn log cabins located on the Salmon River approximately 60 miles upriver from Riggins, accessible by jet boat or hiking the Salmon River Trail.

The site features a restored orchard, root cellar, and remnants of early 1900s mining-era structures, making it a popular stop for Main Salmon River rafters and a designated National Register of Historic Places location.

Visitors can explore the cabins and learn about Jim Moore's role as a supply point for miners heading to Thunder Mountain between 1900-1902.
