Part of Wallowa Whitman National Forest
Shady Campground is a rustic campground located along the Wild and Scenic Lostine River. Nestled in a 'shady' cool fir and pine tree forest, the campground is popular during the summer for local and regional campers. There are 14 campsites, offering a variety of settings for campers.
Nearby, Maxwell Trailhead provides access to the Maxwell Lake and other locations in the Eagle Cap Wilderness.
The primary use season is from early June to the end of September.
Quiet hours are 10:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m.
Shady Campground has 14 campsites with tables, fire rings and a parking spot.
With the continued hot temps and low Relative Humidity’s predicted in the weather on top of all the continued large fires going in the region, the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest will move to an IFPL 4 on Saturday morning the 8th of August at 0001.
With tinder dry forest fuels and high daytime temperatures, conditions are prime for potential human-caused forest fires. We ask that you be extremely careful when out on the forest.
