Smith River State Park in MT -- Camping

Smith River State Park centers on a remote 59-mile float route through a canyon between the Little Belt and Big Belt mountain ranges, featuring class II whitewater sections and sharp turns around rocky shallows. Rather than a traditional campground, the park operates 27 boat camps with 52 campsites distributed across the corridor on National Forest and state land, signed and marked on provided maps. The Camp Baker put-in offers parking, vault toilets, grills, and firewood for purchase, while the Eden Bridge take-out provides waste facilities. There are no public services between access points; floaters must bring all food, water, and camping gear, with required human waste pack-out to preserve the wilderness experience.
