Canyon Creek Road Dispersed Camping

The hike to Basin Lakes in the Alaska Basin begins from Teton Canyon on the west side of Grand Teton National Park. From Highway 33 in the heart of Driggs, ID, turn eastbound onto Ski Hill Road. At just over a mile you'll reach a fork in the road. Bear left here and continue on Ski Hill Road, heading towards Grand Targhee Resort. Roughly 4 miles from Highway 33 you'll reach the Wyoming state line, and will soon pass through the town of Alta. At roughly 6.4 miles you'll reach the Targhee National Forest boundary. At 6.6 miles, just after crossing over the cattle guard, turn right onto Teton Canyon Road, which soon turns into a gravel road. From the junction drive another 4.6 miles to the South Teton Canyon Trailhead, located at the end of the road. As mentioned, Teton Canyon Road is a gravel road with lots of pot holes and washboard. However, a two-wheel drive vehicle should have no problems making it if drivers take their time.

The Slide Lake Boating Site is a small, beautiful lake access point, ideal for kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, and other non-motorized watercraft. It is located down the Taylor Ranch Road, a spur off the main Gros Ventre Road that winds down through aspen stands and large boulders from the Gros Ventre Slide. There are several small parking spots amongst the willows, aspens and large boulders, directly adjacent to the lake and a small beach. A small sandy trail leads down to the beach, located near the lake’s outlet and offers great access to the lake’s western shores. There are no facilities located on site, although dispersed and fee campgrounds are located nearby. Parking is limited and tight and does not have ample space for trailer turnaround. No cellular service is available.
