This campsite is my least favorite in Glacier. The trail to get to it was convoluted and overgrown. The swinging bridge that we took to get to it seemed dangerous and was missing planks and hardware. I recommend taking the horse ford if you are coming from the Goat Haunt area. It will take you directly to the bearpoles. The campsite itself was actually not that bad. It had easy access to water and an outhouse style toilet.
