About Target Meadows Campground
Located around a scenic meadow and surrounded by majestic trees such as Engelmann spruce and Lodgepole pine, Target Meadows has a unique history. It was used by U.S. Army soldiers stationed at Ft. Walla Walla as a summer encampment and artillery range from the late 1880s through 1906. Visitors who explore the campground and surrounding area can even find grooves in trees left by the cavalry's bullets.
