E Cottonwood Creek Camping Area

Summary

Cottonwood Creek in Wyoming offers peaceful dispersed camping and a few primitive, established sites—no reservations or permits are required, and camping is generally free. There are no amenities: no toilets, water, fire rings, picnic tables, or hookups, so come fully self-contained. Accessible by high-clearance vehicles, it's best for tent and off-grid RV campers. The area lies in a quiet, forested valley near the Wind River Range, ideal for solitude and scenic views. Nearby trails offer access to hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. Best visited late spring through early fall when roads are passable and snow-free. Expect a rugged, remote camping experience.
