About This Location

Experience primitive riverfront camping at the White Bird Gravel Pit, a scenic BLM site perfect for launching your next Salmon River adventure.

The White Bird Gravel Pit Recreation Site offers a rugged, back-to-basics experience for those looking to explore the Lower Salmon River. As an undeveloped BLM site, it serves as a convenient put-in location for rafters and kayakers heading toward Pine Bar or Heller Bar. The terrain is simple and open, providing direct, easy access to the water for river enthusiasts who prefer a natural, unmanicured setting.

This site features minimal amenities, primarily functioning as a primitive area with a functional boat ramp for river travelers. Because there are no hookups or developed facilities, it is best suited for self-sufficient campers, tent enthusiasts, and RV travelers who enjoy boondocking in a quiet, riverside environment. The site remains open year-round for those looking to enjoy the changing scenery of the Rocky Mountains.

While the area is largely undeveloped, its prime location along the river makes it a vital stop for anyone navigating the Salmon River corridor. It is an ideal spot for those who want to avoid crowded commercial parks and instead enjoy the solitude and raw beauty of Idaho’s river country.
