There are no reservations for any of the campgrounds (dispersed or developed). They are all "first come first serve."
Fun times on this rafting experience but not for little kids because we flipped. But a great trip come back every year
We always have a great time horse camping in Bridger-Tetons. It's incredible views and insane weather. Can't complain.
Beautiful and secluded with plenty of places to disappear and enjoy nature. There are numerous places to picnic, trails to hike and hidden gems to be found.
The roads vary in maneuverability, with four wheel drive being a requirement for some, but most are passable with a 2wd truck if the roads are dry. The conditions can change quickly and vary from season to season. The closer you stay to the National Forest entrances, the better the roads will be. I've even taken my car to gatherings several miles in without any issues at all. Always carry a spare tire and have the equipment (and knowhow) required to change it... Sharp rocks are not very forgiving when it comes to rubber tires.
The forest is any off-road-vehicle lovers dream with a variety of trails to fit any level of experience, beginner - mastered and many areas of the forest are tailored just for these types of recreational activities.
The evenings are always cool and even on the sunniest and warmest days, the weather can change quickly, without any notice. At minimum a jacket or hoodie is a must in the summertime, along with bug spray and plenty of water... There isn't any place to get any once you're here. With the desolate location and zero mobile coverage, it's also recommended to have enough snacks, water, blankets, basic vehicle maintenance supplies (spare tire and jack, jumper box, flashlights with extra batteries, etc.) and any other "emergency" supplies, like medications, you may require to keep you comfortable in case you are stranded for a little bit. Always let someone know where you are going and when you plan on coming back.
Bear spray is recommended (seen a mountain lion last night!) and extra care and consideration should be used when managing food storage and waste to help avoid unexpected visits from the forest creatures.
Common sense should be used in every aspect of your trip into the National Forest to make sure you have the most enjoyable time possible. Almost every unfortunate circumstance results from a hastily made, careless decision that could have been completely avoided with minimal effort.
The National Forests are closed to motorized vehicles from December 1st - May 1st every year, so plan accordingly.
It is wonderful to drive through this forest. In the winter, it is particularly beautiful.
I travel this area often and with the view, the people,and all the shinny objects that catch my eye the miles pass with out much notice. Ps if you happen to pass my friend and fellow Patriot Rudy in your travels stop and take a break and say hello. You can't not notice all the flags flying.🇺🇲📜🗽⚖️⚔️👍👍
