Camp Hudson, Military fort in Val Verde County, Texas, US.
The fort stood on San Pedro Creek, a tributary of the Devils River, with buildings constructed from a mixture of gravel and lime for temperature control.
Established in June 1857, Camp Hudson protected wagon traffic and stagecoaches on the San Antonio-El Paso Road between Fort Clark and Fort Lancaster.
During its operation, Camp Hudson served as a crucial military outpost where soldiers regularly engaged with Native American groups to protect settlers and travelers.
A post office operated at Camp Hudson from 1857 to 1866, providing essential communication services for military personnel and travelers crossing the region.
The fort experienced a notable visit in 1859 when an experimental camel caravan from Camp Verde passed through during the United States Camel Corps program.
