Shoshone National Forest's Hugh Otte Camping Area sits along a small stream in Sinks Canyon, with cottonwood and aspen trees lining the water's edge. The access road is rocky and rutted, though one camper reached it in a Subaru Outback with care. Tent camping only. No ATT cell service is available on-site, and there is no potable water at the campground. A pit toilet is maintained on the premises. Sinks Canyon Campground is roughly 1.5 miles up the canyon for campers who want developed amenities or RV-compatible sites.
