What campers say

Bald Mountain Campground sits at higher elevation with wide, open sites and consistent mountain views. Visitors commonly praise the scenery, dramatic sunsets, nearby elk and access to local hikes (Medicine Wheel, Porcupine Falls) and fishing on the upper Little Bighorn. Sites and facilities are generally described as clean and affordable (around $20 per night reported), with a stream nearby. Cooler nighttime temperatures are typical. Be aware that the loop is relatively small and a few people found it tucked away; sound carries in the open setting, so neighboring campsites may be audible.
