Big Sheep Camp Offers Remote Backcountry Escape In The Wallowa Mountains


Visitors seeking an authentic wilderness getaway are discovering Big Sheep Camp, a remote backcountry destination tucked behind Wing Ridge in Oregon’s Wallowa Mountains. The adventure begins at Salt Creek SnoPark, located at an elevation of around six thousand two hundred feet and regarded as the highest SnoPark in the region. Reaching the camp is part of the experience, with scenic alpine surroundings and rewarding mountain routes along the way.


The main approach follows Wing Ridge Trail, taking travelers across a high saddle before reaching the secluded camp. Guests can enjoy skiing, snow travel, and spectacular mountain scenery while carrying light day packs. An alternative route through the Wagon Road Trail provides another option for visitors looking for a steadier and more direct journey into the backcountry.


For travelers who prefer a lighter load, porter services are available to help transport heavier equipment. The camp sits at approximately six thousand four hundred feet along the mountain road, providing a peaceful setting surrounded by rugged wilderness. Its remote location offers guests an opportunity to disconnect from everyday life while enjoying the natural beauty of the Wallowa Mountains.


Accommodation includes two separate sleeping cabins, each offering space for small groups, along with shared facilities including a kitchen yurt and sauna. Exclusive group bookings allow friends, families, and outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy the entire camp together. Combining mountain adventure with comfortable facilities, Big Sheep Camp provides a memorable backcountry experience for winter sports lovers and groups seeking a peaceful escape.

Absolutely superb place. Brilliant attractions and the animals are great. Ideal for families. The food and facilities are great. WiFi available. Free parking. One real g is the staff. Everyone we spoke to was enthusiastic and helpful. We really felt like they enjoyed it as much as we did. Recommended!

We’d always come up to Devon from East Sussex to visit my great grandparents who’d always take us to the big sheep. One of my best childhood memories is visiting this place. Unfortunately my grandparents passed in 2019&2020, so I hadn’t visited this place in years, the last time I visited was when I was around 14? I’m now 22 and have come up to Devon with my partner and son and we re visited the big sheep yesterday ( October 18th ). We had the best time! It was nice to see that not much has changed, it made me feel like a kid again! This place is just amazing, there’s so much to do and there’s always entertainment on! The animals are just so sweet and we really enjoyed feeding them in the barn! The staff are always so lovely and welcoming too. We fed some lambs which was an amazing experience & the man who hosted the lamb feeding was the same man I had a picture with back in 2013 when I was little! I’m unsure of his name but he had a great sense of humour and was overall really lovely! I’m looking forward to bringing my son here every year so Devon & the big sheep can be a big part of his childhood too❤️

Our family had the most enjoyable and hilarious time here today. This represents, in my opinion, one of the best value days out around. John was incredibly entertaining during Rams on Parade, the Duck Trials and the sheep race, and we also really enjoyed feeding the lambs. The rides are all free, which we did not expect, and we went on the rollercoaster 3 times. The cafe is lovely and the play equipment was really fun for our daughter too. There were also some lovely things which we bought in the shop. Could not recommend this more!
