Frazier Campground

Located near the headwaters of Frazier Creek, this campground offers a calm setting among tall grasses and large ponderosa pine trees. There are ten campsites within this facility and each offers a picnic table, fire pit/grill and variously sized parking spurs. Most recreational vehicles or cars with trailers should not have trouble parking in the campsites here. Nearby Forest Service Road 58 provides access to the Sunflower area and the South Fork of the John Day River. Frazier is a popular campground during the fall hunting season.

Public land it sits in

On Wilderness Atlas →

Black Canyon Wilderness begins about 6.4 miles away, and it is the closest of these.

Each unit is published as a centre point and an acreage rather than a boundary, so this section stands it in for a circle of the same area. Whether a campground is inside, and how far it is from one it is outside, are both approximate.
