Camping Along Columbia/Harvard, Oxford/Belford/Missouri

[uljohn]

I'll be going NOBO in late September/early October through Columbia and Harvard (purple tracing), and then doing an out-and-back to Missouri.

Can anyone recommend any dispersed camping spots in particular along these routes?

There is plenty of good spots with water in the Horn Fork Basin before you go up Columbia. As far as that route to MO I do not know.

your line between harvard and bel/ox is pretty inefficient- have you considered either picking up the nolan's route between those two OR popping up elkhead pass to bel/ox, over to MO and descend to clohesy lake instead?

anyway, plenty of camping in horn fork, pine creek, missouri gulch, and clohesy lake, whichever way you end up taking

Thanks steph and Ptglhs, much appreciated; will descend down the Nolan route, take Pine Creek to Missouri Gulch, summit and head back to CT along bel/ox.
