Sheep Creek Campsite (RL)

Sheep Creek Campsite serves as a backcountry camping location along the Sheep Creek trail in the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area, offering access to a multi-day hiking route that descends 6,000 feet from Windy Saddle to the Snake River.

The campsite is located at the confluence of East and West Fork Sheep Creek (approximately 5 miles from the trailhead) and provides a decent site for several tents, though hikers should be aware of snags from an old burn in the area.

Water is available from Sheep Creek, and the site serves as a strategic stopping point for those hiking the challenging Sheep Creek trail, best accessed from early July onward when snow melts from the access road.
