Concise planning notes based on the public Recreation.gov campground information.
This day-use picnic area was constructed in 2003 and is a fully accessible site. A large shelter covers several picnic and serving tables, two grills and a campfire circle with benches. Accessible vault toilets and trash collection are provided but drinking water is not available. A large parking area is adjacent to the site, accommodating 25 through 30 vehicles.
The picnic area is situated at the mouth of Lamoille Canyon, a part of the beautiful Ruby Mountains. The area is a desert island brimming with wildlife, sparkling lakes and streams, wildflower-filled meadows and jagged peaks. The shelter is surrounded by a stand of shady aspens. Lamoille Creek runs through the site.
Fishing for rainbow and brook trout is popular on the creek. Lamoille Canyon contains numerous hiking and horseback riding trails that lead to alpine lakes and scenic vistas. The canyon road itself, Lamoille Canyon Scenic Byway, is popular for scenic driving and road biking.
Powerhouse Picnic Area is located on the opposite side of Lamoille creek, and is a first come, first serve day use area for picnicking, with designated sites along the creek that include a picnic table, grill, and fire pit. A vault toilet is also available
