About This Park
At the southern end of the East Fork canyon is Buffalo Crossing Campground, an old Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC) era site which actually boasts the largest campsites along the river.
The East Fork meanders through the forested valley shaded by tall ponderosa pines and bordered by grasses, alders, and cottonwoods. Campsites are located a few steps from the stream to protect the Black River’s unique riparian zone, but access to the river is easy as the undergrowth serves more to enhance the river’s picturesque nature than to obstruct easy passage.

Book This Park
No hookups on-site gives this park a more rustic feel, ideal for campers who don't need all the conveniences. Desert camping means open views and quiet nights, though plan for heat during the day and shade where you can find it. Facilities are basic — bring what you need and expect a more self-sufficient camping experience.
