Albert Moser Campground is situated on the banks of the Cub River about nine miles from Preston, Idaho. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the late 1930s, the campground is just off Cub River Road, at an elevation of 6,000 feet. Visitors enjoy trout fishing in the river and exploring local trails.

Recreation

The Cub River provides excellent trout fishing. Anglers enjoy fly-fishing for wild cutthroat and hatchery rainbows.

Numerous hiking, biking, horse and off-road vehicle trails crisscross the Cub River area, offering great opportunities to get out and see the beautiful surroundings.

Natural Features

The banks of the gentle Cub River are lined with dense stands of cottonwood trees, which offer pleasant shade in the summer and bright autumn color.
