Summary
Located in the Shoshone National Forest near the Beartooth Highway, it’s free, permit-free, and first-come, first-served. There are no amenities: no toilets, water, fire rings, or picnic tables, so campers must be fully self-sufficient. RVs can access the area, but there are no hookups. The scenery is stunning: high alpine terrain with dramatic mountain views, meadows, and nearby streams. Popular nearby trails include those leading into the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. Ideal for solitude-seekers and experienced campers. Best time to visit is June through September, when roads are open and snow-free.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
