The numbers that decide it

Recreation.gov publishes no site-level detail for this campground, so we cannot say what length of rig it takes. Call the managing office before committing to it in a large vehicle.

Power Plant Campground

The Power Plant Campground is near Atlanta, Idaho. A trailhead offers access to the Sawtooth Wilderness, heading northeast into a lake-filled basin. The historic mining town of Atlanta is just south of the campground. Good fishing in the river for rainbow trout and whitefish.
