Humes Ranch Campground

Humes Ranch Campground offers established backcountry campsites in a scenic meadow along the Elwha River within Olympic National Park, featuring a historic 1905 homestead cabin.

The campground includes a bear hang wire (though reportedly in poor condition) and a backcountry toilet, making it a popular basecamp for backpackers exploring the Elwha River Valley. Access requires hiking 9.

5 miles from Madison Falls Trailhead, as the Olympic Hot Springs Road has been washed out since 2017; note that the Elwha River is closed to fishing.
