About Evergreen Campground

Overview

Evergreen Campground is situated next to the Weiser River just off Highway 95 between the towns of Council and New Meadows, Idaho. Fishing and hiking are popular activities.

Recreation

The Weiser River flows between the campground and the highway, offering excellent rainbow trout fishing.

The Weiser River Trail is popular for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding, and can be accessed within the site.

Facilities

The campground offers several single and double-family sites, most of which are accessible. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided. The road system throughout the campground is gravel, but parking spurs are paved.

Natural Features

Evergeen lives up to its name, as it's settled in a scenic, lush Douglas fir and spruce forest at an approximate elevation of 4,000 feet. Although the campground is right off the highway, the trees shelter campers from much of the traffic noise, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

Camp at Last Chance Campground

New Meadows, Idaho

5.0

Last Chance Campground is located in New Meadow, Idaho, and about 30 minutes away from the tourist town of McCall. It is a perfect location to get lost in nature, but still want to remain connected. Cell phone service was very excellent. Goose Creek slips it's way alongside the campground, bringing rushing cold water all the way from Goose Lake. If you're looking to camp at a spot with the soun...

Mountain Bike the Huckleberry Bay Loop

McCall, Idaho

6.5 mi / 1250 ft gain

Park at the visitor center for Ponderosa State Park to start. If you don't want to pay for parking you can park in the residential area outside of town or even in town, which is only a mile away from the park and has bike friendly roads to get to the state park. If you want more challenging downhilling, ride the loop counter-clockwise. I prefer to ride it clockwise because there is a really fu...

Climbing at Thinking Spot

McCall, Idaho

The thinking spot isn't a secret spot but it will seem like it when you arrive at an empty crag with dozens of routes all to yourself. There are climbs ranging from 5.7 to 5.11 so there's something for most. Though directions to get to the crag exist on Mountain project, there is practically no beta on the routes and there is no climbing book with info about it yet which means you'll have to on...

Hike to Upper Hazard Lake via Hard Creek

Pollock, Idaho

5.0

4.8 mi / 500 ft gain

Trail 169 starts out of a small campground off Hazard Lake road. To get to the trailhead, you leave paved roads for about 15 miles of travel on a gravel road, fit for any vehicle - no worries Prius. The campground seems like a suspiciously unofficial campground (nothing wrong with that) but also has an authentic feel. Regardless, feel free to make camp here if you wish.Start off on trail 169 at...

Soak at Gold Fork Hot Springs

McCall, Idaho

1.0

It takes almost two hours, when you leave from Boise, Idaho to Gold Fork Hot Springs. You will feel like you’re at a resort without paying the expensive resort fees. You can stay all day, tan on tanning chairs, and relax. I have visited this destination more than a handful of times and I'm excited to go again soon this year. To get to this spot if coming from Boise, Idaho take West State to ID-...

Snowshoe Lake Cascade State Park

Cascade, Idaho

1.5 mi / 100 ft gain

Lake Cascade sits at about 4700' above sea level, the starting point for this snowshoe (or light nordic skiing). To arrive, follow signs on hwy 55 in Cascade for Lake Cascade State Park. Any car will do, including the Prius, to get to Lake Cascade, but watch the weather for snow storms. Pay $5 down by the dock to park in the boat ramp parking lot; from here head north along the lake/campground....
