Tiffany Springs Campground

This campground has 6 single campsites with picnic tables and fire rings. One toilet facility services the site. No water or garbage service is available, please pack out garbage. A nice camping area, although this campground was burned over in the Tripod Fire of 2006, so the site is mainly open with some blackened trees. The Tiffany Lake Trail #373 begins across the Forest Service Road #39 from the Campground. This road has not been graded recently and is not recommended for passanger vehicles. Trailers are prohibited.

Public land it sits in

On Wilderness Atlas →

Pasayten Wilderness begins about 10.9 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.
