Siuslaw National Forest

A recent trip to the Siuslaw National Forest afforded a chance to see the Oregon coast.  Couldn't you just sit back, listen and watch the waves crash near Heceta Lighthouse for hours?

Spring Fishing at Diamond Fork

Diamond Fork Campground in Utah is now open, not only for camping, but fishing as well! The stream and creek running through the campground are great for catching brown and cutthroat trout.  

Located in the Spanish Fork Canyon, the area offers plenty of outdoor activities. The Red Ledges Picnic area is located just a mile from the campground with views of Diamond Fork Arch. Monks Hollow Trail begins 5 miles from the campground and offers hiking, biking and ATV trails. The popular Fifth Water Hot Springs, with a 2.5 mile hike offers several hot spring pools with temperatures for all weather.

Looking for more information on a campground?

Start with a State under our CAMPGROUNDS menu option.

You'll find a map, a list of the Forests and Ranger Districts where we manage campgrounds.  Campground descriptions include links to our photos and to our Forest Service partner where you can read more about the campground and general area.  We also include a link to the campground page on www.recreation.gov for reserving a campsite.  Recreation.Gov often has photos on each campsite.

You may also use www.recreation.gov to search for your campground.  There are many campgrounds, across the nation, with the same name.  Be sure you've got the one you want before making the reservation.  And confirm it when you receive your confirmation letter/email.  Little can be done on the day of your arrival if your reservation is for another campground.  But our hosts can help you straighten things out and possibly find you a site.
