The Pomeroy Ranger District, the northern-most district of the Umatilla National Forest, is located in southeastern Washington and northeastern Oregon. It includes 365,901 acres at the northeastern edge of the Blue Mountains with 95,467 acres in Garfield County, thus allowing a wide range of recreational opportunities.

The Pomeroy Ranger District has developed campgrounds, none of which are administered as fee sites. These include: Tucanonnon Campground, Alder Thicket, Wickiup, Teal, Big Springs, and Godman. Dispersed campgrounds include: Misery, Spruce Springs, Ladybug, Panjab, Boundary, Pataha and Cabin Saddle.

Vista points provide a great place to sit and relax, or just to eat lunch during a short drive, Sunset Point, the Wenatchee area, Ray Ridge, Table Rock and the west edge of Teal Campground all provide spectacular views. Or if you like to hike, a walk into Oregon Butte will provide a breath-taking view of the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness.

There are four cabins (old guard stations) that may be rented for overnight stays located at Godman, Clearwater, and Wenatchee areas. The charge per night is $25 to $50.

Camp Wooten State Park is located 45 miles southeast of Dayton on the Tucannon River in the Blue Mountains.  Click here for more information.
