Summary

3/Post Lake Access - WGF in Wyoming offers free, first-come, first-served dispersed camping only—no reservations or permits required. There are no developed campsites, toilets, water, fire rings, picnic tables, or hookups, so campers must come prepared and practice Leave No Trace. RVs can access the area, but conditions are primitive. The vibe is quiet and remote with stunning lakeside views nestled in rolling prairie with occasional mountain backdrops. It’s ideal for anglers, kayakers, and stargazers. Best visited late spring through early fall, weather permitting. Winds can be strong, but the solitude and sunsets are unmatched. Closest amenities are in Wheatland.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
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.
