Description

Helende Campround at ID-21 mile 81.5 is a good river access that serves as a take-out or put-in. It is a good access point for rafts and a great campground to stage adventures in the South Fork Payette drainage. The access point is adjacent to but separate from the campground. To reach the river access, enter the campground but instead of following the loop around the sites, head straight on the dirt road towards the river. Rafts can easily use this access.
