Island Bar Recreation Site is a recreation site administered by the Bureau of Land Management. It is accessible when flows are below 35,000 cfs (at higher flows the site becomes an island). The site is largely undeveloped with dispersed camping and a rough gravel access down to the river at the upstream end of the island. It tends to be a little less busy than the more formal access site at Shorts Bar just downstream. It is a good put-in for those running the town run through Riggins who want to camp the night before.
