the agency’s own description · what’s there
In the agency’s own words
A popular spot with the locals, the quaint Glade Creek Group Campground has five sites and is peacefully tucked away on about four acres, alongside a rolling river and under a canopy of mixed-age conifers and low-growing shrubs. The vegetation provides privacy for each site as well as shade in the summer, and due to its position along a large bend in the river, and private beach access, this area is popular with groups of rafters and family gatherings. The campground is located thirty-one miles east of Kooskia and about eight miles east of Lowell, Idaho. Gas, groceries, and other services are available in Kooskia. Keep reading
This campground is only available as a group site and is reservable through http://www.recreation.gov.

recreation.gov publishes no availability for a campground you can’t reserve, so there’s no thirty-night reading to draw here. The season bar above is what the agency does publish.
