Public land it sits in

On Wilderness Atlas →

This campground sits inside Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest.

Each unit is published as a centre point and an acreage rather than a boundary, so this section stands it in for a circle of the same area. Whether a campground is inside, and how far it is from one it is outside, are both approximate.

Natural features

The Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest offers stunning scenic vistas, with high, glaciated alpine peaks, valleys of old growth forest and rugged shrub-steppe country making up the diverse landscape.

Recreation

Three Creek Campground is a great base camp for a variety of outdoor recreational activities. Anglers enjoy casting a line into the Entiat River near the campground on the stretch of the river above Entiat Falls. Carving through a wide, U-shaped valley, the river is dominated by relatively shallow riffles interspersed with pools, plunge pools and glides where the trout fishing is quite good. Populations of rainbow, cutthroat and eastern brook trout are found in this tributary. Selective gear rules apply to fishing in the Entiat River. See Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife for fishing rules and regulations. Hiking and motorized trails are nearby that can take you into high meadows or along the river into the Glacier Peak wilderness.
