"There is no official Campground at Soda Lake, however there are numerous camps (estimated at least 20 camp sites) with tables and fire rings scattered around the entire lake."
"Getting to soda lake was very straight forward and easy out of Pinedale. Very well maintained road."
"There is water, pit toilets, fire Rings, lamp post, and water. The only downside to the campground is it is located right along a fairly busy two lane Highway."
"This website has Warren Bridge, and Warren Bridge Campground listed with the same location on map. I believe the Warren Bridge Campground refers to the paid camping with hookups."
"Hardly could be called a campground, a few lakeside (if Lake not high) picnic tables, a few fire rings. A little shade at lakes edge from Aspens. Sage country typ. "
"Can access by ATV, horse, foot, watercraft. Water is clear but cold and super quiet during the week. We are the only people here right now. So amazing. Be prepared for bugs tho."
"This area is a wide open no shade glacial pothole lake. There are free designated, kind of, campsites around the lake. Couple places to launch a boat and four vault toilets scattered around."
"Open grassy area in Aspen close to paved road."
"I wouldn't really say it's an open grassy area but more of several dirt road offshoots where there are some level spots. The level spots are pretty spread apart so doesn't feel crowded."
"We stopped in this part of the National Forest on our way to Yellowstone by way of Jackson Hole, WY. The access is off of HWY 191."
"Most are near the river. Some are very large and flat. We saw quite a few 5th wheelers parked in the first few miles where the road is flat and suitable for a sedan."
"The spot was large enough to turn around and easily maneuver the trailer. We got there on a Thursday evening at about 8pm. Nobody passed our campsite that whole evening, aside from a deer."
"Long dirt road with lots of trails leading to nice spots. The road and most of the campsites are fit for large RVs. Most spots have shade and fire rings."
TravelerThe sites are down such a long road that I almost didn't believe they really existed, but I'm glad I persisted in driving all the way to the coordinates! Beautiful dispersed campsites right next to Whiskey Creek and some well-maintained hiking trails in the national forest and wilderness area. Wish i could stay longer. Also, I saw a bighorn sheep!
LegendThis area is a wide open no shade glacial pothole lake. There are free designated, kind of, campsites around the lake. Couple places to launch a boat and four vault toilets scattered around. No trash dumpsters, no water, but fair to good cell signal depending on your location. Only a few miles outside of Pinedale on nice graded gravel roads. 14 day camping limit is posted.
LegendThis is just a single BLM camp site at the end of a dirt road at the Boulder Lake Dam. Table, fire ring and a old stinky vault toilet. No water, no trash and the road in is narrow and.lumpy and I would not haul in a TT or RV. However it does have a nice view looking up Boulder Lake. Note that there is no road across the dam no matter what Google maps says!. Cell signal is marginal.
LegendThere is no official Campground at Soda Lake, however there are numerous camps (estimated at least 20 camp sites) with tables and fire rings scattered around the entire lake. This is a WY Game and Fish habitat area. Camping is FREE, and limited to 14 days. Several toilet/restrooms are scattered around the lake also. No shade or trees along Soda Lake. Limited cell signal depending on your location...seems the west shore has better cell signal on Verizon. I posted a screenshot of my own mapping efforts for the camps and restroom locations. Two boat ramps but the better concrete one is on the west shore. Access road is smooth graded with dust abatement...two access point and the north one is best to take advantage of the improved road conditions
GuideIt’s a pretty spot, but we were unfortunately unable to stay here because a couple was already there and they asked us to leave because they wanted the spot to themselves - which we understood.
They also blocked the road that goes pass the site with their truck so we weren’t able to drive any further to see if there was anywhere else in the area, but upon looking at satellite view of the coordinates, the road seems to go on a bit further so if you have the chance to drive through there may be more potential sites.
The road is a bit rough and you definitely need a high clearance vehicle to drive through.
Tons of wildflowers and trees everywhere. A very private spot right off the highway.
We ended up staying at Allred Flat campground just a mile or so up there road. It’s $10 a night - $5 if you have a pass - and in my opinion was even prettier than this site.
LegendCoordinates: 42.78898,-110.68746. Free. Camped here Sept 17, 2024. One of several dispersed campsites along Greys River Road (Forest Road 10138). Large dispersed site, set back from forest road; no concerns with dust coming into the site from passing vehicles. Should comfortably accommodate 3 or 4 rigs. Clean rock fire ring. Mostly level, dirt surface. Easy access from forest road. Open site surrounded by trees. Next to Grey's River; easy access for bank fishing. There is a set of trees that may accommodate hammock camping. Tent camping also possible. Area can get muddy after rain. Solar recharging possible in middle of afternoon. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Loved this spot.
TravelerGetting to soda lake was very straight forward and easy out of Pinedale. Very well maintained road. Needed a pit stop for the night and to be in close proximity to Jackson Hole for a full day of activities there before continuing on through Yellowstone. Lake/sites are very exposed to weather condition but well established and marked. I opted to continue into forest service land to get out of the wind with tent camping, ended up not far in past the two established spots off of soda lake in the Northeast corner. Perfect secluded spot that was free thanks to Wyomings excellent outdoor recreation opportunities.
GuideHi Campers!
We stopped in this part of the National Forest on our way to Yellowstone by way of Jackson Hole, WY. The access is off of HWY 191. You turn West onto Cliff Creek Rd/Forest Rd 30530 and follow Cliff Creek to many dispersed coming sites.
This is open range so be aware that there are cattle grazing. Plus, it is of course bear country...so know how to stay safe!
We stayed here one night so that we could get on the road again in the morning. We found a nice secluded site. It was pretty close to the creek (there are closer sites but they were taken already) and you could easily walk there to get into some fly fishing.
Our photos are from driving and getting close to the camping area. When we got there it was pretty close to getting dark (just one photo from the site) and we left really early to get on the road.
We'll stop here again if we're in the area! Can't beat free dispersed camping!
LegendOpen grassy area in Aspen close to paved road. This is at the bottom of the primitive FS road #747 that goes up to Kelly Park meadow, however the road has had new water bars installed so only high clearance vehicles can go up to the higher elevation meadow. The dispersed camping is at the lower end. No marked sites, water or trash and cell signal is dependent on your camp. Dirt two-tract road is ok for TTs and RVs. Pinedale is about 8 mi.
