Three Forks Campsite #3

Three Forks campsite #3 is one of five primitive campsites at a remote BLM recreation site where the North Fork, Middle Fork, and main Owyhee River converge, offering a boat launch, vault restrooms, and free camping on a first-come, first-served basis.

High-clearance four-wheel drive is essential, as the final two miles descend steeply into the canyon on a rocky, unmaintained road that may be impassable when wet; visitors are encouraged to park at the rim and hike down if conditions are treacherous.

The site provides excellent access to the Owyhee River for boating, swimming, and fishing, with no cell service and a 14-day stay limit.
