Not a bad site but one of the less scenic of the Wonderland Trail. Pretty much created in an area of fallen trees. If you’re itinerary allows I would recommend continuing on to Dick Creek. If you do end up staying here, though, the sites are good size, flat, and separated. Close to the Carbon River Suspension Bridge too. I had a few hikers wander into camp while I was there to check it out since it was so close to the bridge.

Awesome campsite with amazing views. I have stayed here on two occasions...both on hikes of the Northern Loop trail, and both early-season hikes. There are incredible views from Windy Gap as you descend into the Yellowstone Cliffs area. I recommend having your dinner and breakfast near the bear pole....as the best views can be had near there. Be on the lookout for bald eagles near the cliffs!

Awesome area of the Northern Loop Trail!

A good stop for lunch while hiking the Northern Loop Trail. There are water sources right before you reach the lake. The shore of lake itself has been very muddy both times I’ve been there. Lots of animal tracks in the mud and lots of bugs (both were August trips) but still a great stop. Watch the birds there....they’ll be all over your equipment is you wander too far off.
