Deer Gulch is a free, 55-acre BLM dispersed campground on the Salmon River with spacious sites suitable for both RVs and tents, featuring vault toilets, fire rings, picnic tables, and a boat ramp for river access.

Located just off Highway 93 near Challis with easy access from the road, it offers popular fishing and boating opportunities, though note that river access may occasionally be restricted for restoration.

Be prepared for significant mosquito activity, especially in early summer, and expect limited to no cell service at the site.
