True Wilderness.

Hiking, rockhounding or fishing..this is one of my favorite places I’ve ever been on this Earth. It’s one of those places that makes you feel small. Every time I’m near Debois, I have to plan a few days getting back to what life should be. Simple and majestic.

Worth The Trip!

The road leading to double cabin Campground is a 30 mile long dirt rocky twisting road with deep drop offs, but once you arrive you will be in awe. Arvil the host will greet you with a smile. Plan on staying days to explore the creek bed. Bring bear spray.

Incredible spot

Getting to this place with our 30' TT was a challenge. Most of the road there is a one lane, winding road with dropoffs at times. There are lots of horse trailers that use this road so be prepared. That being said, the payoff is amazing. We camped at a dispersed site just past the actual campground which was completely vacant during our stay.

There are many hunters that also use this area. We spoke with a couple of them & they told us that grizzlies, moose, black bears, elk at times, & mule deer are very present in the valley although we only saw deer. The river is very near the lower campsites. The stars go on forever & we were lucky enough to stay here for 3 clear nights & a full moon. It is a top notch spot. Highly recommend.

We got our water from a mountain stream 20 minutes away, it was cleaner than tap water. Both of us drank it & lived. Firewood is very plentiful along the road, just watch for marked areas where it can't be gathered.

Great area, but suspect host

Double Cabin Campground is a beautiful area, right next to the Wiggins Fork of the Wind River. Great fishing for brookies and cutthroat trout. There are corrals for horses nearby. There are plenty of places to camp off of the campground too. The only real issue is the camp host is aggressive with his duties. He visits often and even tells campers out of the campground nearby how to camp, maintain fires, and bear safety. Can be overbearing when trying to get away from it all. Other than than, this is a great area to spend time in. The pictures are from some of the just off campground area.

Breathtaking

Amazing time at this campground! The views are breathtaking. We truly felt like we were the only people in the campground, even though it was a highly trafficked time during eclipse. It was amazing and we hope to return soon.
