December 1, 2024

The Teton Reservoir Campsite 1 is a non-reservable, no-fee developed camping area located in the Upper North Platte watershed of Wyoming. The area offers stunning views of the snow-capped mountains and lush forests that surround it. It is a perfect spot for camping enthusiasts who love to explore nature and enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, and boating.

The nearby points of interest include the Medicine Bow National Forest, which is home to over 400 species of wildlife and offers excellent hiking trails. Visitors can also enjoy fishing in the North Platte River, which is known for its trout population. The Jelm Mountain Observatory, located just a few miles from the campground, is another attraction that draws many visitors.

The campground amenities include picnic tables, fire pits, and vault toilets. Potable water is not available, so visitors are advised to bring their own drinking water. The area is pet-friendly, but pets must be kept on a leash at all times.

Interesting facts about the area include that it was once home to early settlers who made a living from ranching and mining. The Teton Reservoir was created in the 1960s as part of a plan to provide water for irrigation and hydropower generation.

The best time to visit Teton Reservoir Campsite 1 is during the summer months, from June to August, when the average temperature is around 70°F. The weather is mild, and the days are long, providing ample time for outdoor activities. However, visitors should be prepared for occasional thunderstorms during this time.
