When we left Salmon, we pulled into McFarland Recreation Area a few miles north of Leadore on SR-28 for lunch. A storm was brewing to the north, so we decided to wait awhile before heading on down the road. Well, Earl got into a conversation with another camper, and before we knew it, it was 2 o'clock...and since we're usually off the road by 2 or 3, we decided to spend the night.

This is a nice, small BLM campground...only five sites, one of which is set up with full hookups for a camp host (electric turned off and dump locked since there isn't currently anyone filling the position). It's nestled in the Lemhi Valley between the Lemhi Range to the west and the Beaverhead Mountains to the east.
