This is a great park with some great scenery. There are pluses and minuses to all of the sites. I'm listing the good and the bad for sites I've camped in. A095: Close to the parking space, but there is a bit of a hill between the car and the camping pad. Next to bathrooms, so there is a lot of noise, but super convenient if you are camping with kids. Toilets flush and there are sinks with running water, as well as a washing station for dishes and pans. A fair amount of space between this site and other sites. A065: AMAZING views! A steep hike to bathrooms, but there are flush-toilets, sinks and a washing station. If it's windy, there is nothing to shelter the tent. B204: I wouldn't recommend this one. Only vault toilets that smell SO bad. No sinks, but there is a water spigot for dishes. Sites are stacked close together. I could hear the guy two sites over snoring every night. If it's windy, there is a ridge that will protect your tent. On the other side of the ridge is the valley where elk congregate. In the fall, they bugle all night. I found this relaxing, but others may not. The campsite as a whole: The rangers are nice and helpful. The couple selling firewood are super cranky. Best just to accept that fact and go with it. This isn't a party campground. Most of the people who stay there are there to hike and enjoy the scenery. Quiet hours are enforced by rangers - something I definitely appreciate. The rangers also walk around to make sure no one has left food out - thus keeping the bears away. They are very strict about letting you know that all food must be in the food lockers. Picture identification: Edge of grey tent on left with green chair - site B204; Two tents on one pad - site A095; Fire ring with tent in background: A065
