Description

Elk Bar Camp is a large site with a sandbar just below a small rapid. The upstream end of the site is rocky grading into a high bench. This is one of the nicer camps in the Impassable Canyon, particularly during low water of summer. It is a great camp for a last night on the river although it makes for an approximately 20 mile day on your final day.
