West Fork Madison Campground

West Fork is a small seven unit campground along the banks of the West Fork of the Madison River, near its confluence with the Madison, in a grove of old growth spruce and Douglas fir. The vegetation is dense and shaded. The access road divides the campground, with 2 sites north of the road and a 5 site loop on the south. Trailers are not permitted due to the tight, narrow turns and small camp spaces. There is a fire ring and picnic table in each campsite, and bear-proof food storage lockers on each side of the campground. A water spigot and two outhouses are located in the loop. Fishing is available in both the West Fork and Madison Rivers. The West Fork road provides access to OHV trails and scenic drives in the Gravelly Mountains, and there are hiking trails in the Lee Metcalf Wilderness. The west entrance to Yellowstone National Park is less than 40 miles away.
