We cannot watch this one yet. It is not reservable through recreation.gov. Nothing here will alert you — browse what we do watch.
This site was homesteaded some years after the Lewis & Clark Expedition visited in 1805 and was donated back to the BLM in 2002. A picnic/day-use area in the homestead's old apple orchard lies within view of the geologic formations that William Clark phonetically noted in his journal as "pirimids." The BLM manages the 3-acre site to preserve the unique historic and geologic characteristics and maintain an undeveloped feel.
Getting there
Located on the banks of Tower Creek: drive approximately 10 miles north of Salmon on Highway 93, turn right (east) onto Tower Creek Road. The site is about 2 miles up the canyon adjacent to the Pirimids rock formations.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 11.2 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
