Primitive camping is allowed in the Half Moon area along Pole Creek only.
Primitive camping sites exist along Pole Creek within the WHMA. The area provides access to adjacent U.S. Forest Service lands and little Half Moon Lake where additional recreational opportunities exist.
The trail begins with a small ATV bridge across the creek from a dispersed campsite and parking area just on the west of Greys River, about 46 miles upriver from Alpine, Wyoming. It provides motorized access for 2 miles, then becomes a horse/hiking trail that connects to the Way Trail, or over the top to Sheep Pass. Spring Creek Falls is an attraction.
The North Fork Sheep Creek trail begins from the north side of Sheep Creek Road, FS 10125 and provides access to the 70 mile Wyoming Range National Recreation Trail.
Lake Alice Campground has 9 campsites and is a 1.5 mile hike east from the Hobble Creek Campground. Lake Alice provides beautiful views, fishing and a variety of hiking and horseback opportunities to visitors. Visitors are strongly encouraged to practice clean camping techniques and to store attractants (e.g. food, toothpaste) in a manner that makes them unavailable to bears.
Trails 3092 and 3093--Little Greys and Pickle Pass--start at the end of Little Greys River Road and lead visitors to the Wyoming Range National Recreation Trail. Trail 3076 brings people to the Deadman Peak Fire Lookout.
The Bailey Creek trail is 9 miles long (one-way), and travels across the watershed divide to scenic Bailey Lake then continues down to the Snake River. Its source to the Snake River is designated as a national Wild and Scenic River. The trailhead for the Bailey Creek trail offers several areas for dispersed camping as well as plenty of parking. Alternatively, access by fording or boating the Snake River from the Elbow is also possible late in the season.
The Willow Creek Area offers some great backcountry exploring for hiking, horse-back riding, hunting and biking. Willow Creek itself is a Wild and Scenic River, having protection for it's water quality, flows and historic and scenic values far into the future.

Stayed here on Sept 18, 2024. Paid $10 with senior pass. Pretty campground. Lots of pine trees. Some pull-throughs and some back-ins. Gravel campground road; may be tight in places for big rigs. Sites are dirt surface. Some leveling required. Campground accommodates tents, car camping, vans and RVs. Don't recommend large towables. Hammock camping possible. More than one vault toilet; reasonably clean and stocked. Hand water pumps, but shut off. Trash dumpsters, but locked. Some sites have easy access to the Snake River for fishing. Each site has a table, bear box, metal fire ring, and grill. Highway noise, loud at times. $20 is too high for a national forest campground fee when the water is shut off and the trash dumpsters are locked. Site 9 is large but received some odor from the nearby vault toilet. Campground host was friendly. This campground is probably a destination campground for fly fishing on the Snake River; otherwise, it's just okay for an overnight stay.

$10 ($5 with pass). Visited on Sept 19, 2024. Did not camp here; just passing through after dispersed camping down the road. Included some photos of the campground for those considering this campground in the future. It looks okay; nothing special. Easy access to Greys River for bank fishing. Vault toilet, well water pump and trash service. Sites looked small at first glance; looks unmaintained, but it's going into the winter season when I visited. Sites include a picnic table and metal fire ring.

So there’s a few good spots. there’s a shooting range near by so you’ll hear gun shots but it’s all very safe. I usually camp down here every time I’m in town

Visited in mid-September 2024. $10 ($5 with senior pass). Did not camp here; just checking it out. Included some photos in this revciew. Except for one towable camper, I was surprised that no one else was camping here, especially considering it was hunting season. The campground was set back in the trees off of Greys River Road. Lots of trees here; lots of shade. Nice looking campground. Good size sites; appear to be level. Picnic table and fire ring included. Not much privacy between sites, but separation between sites was good. Two clean vault toilets. Hand well water pump. Trash service. No other amenities. No hook-ups. Campground appears to be well maintained. I would consider camping here in the future.

Coordinates: 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.

$12 fee. Paid $6 with senior pass. Camped here for a few nights in the middle of September 2024. Camped one night in site #17, then moved the next day to site #13 along the lake. Beautiful wooded campground. Good primitive campground along a beautiful lake. Our site, site#13, backs up to the lake and has a private path to the lake's beach. The campground has a mix of pull-thru and back-in sites. Lots of trees on the campground. Several sites have enough foliage between them to offer privacy. Some sites are large; some are small. I didn't see any sites that offer good tent camping opportunities. Most sites are suitable for camper vans, car camping, RTTs and truck campers. I saw one towable. I don't think this campground can easily accommodate large rigs. There are two clean his/hers vault toilets, stock with tp. I couldn't find water. The campground has gravel/dirt roads and site driveways. Each site has a table, metal firering& bearbox. The forest road accessing the campground is gravel. The campground is well maintained. No hiking trails at the campground. The sandy beach on the lake was nice for a stroll. Also tried fishing, but no luck. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Would definitely stay here again.

Great spot for a stop on your trip or as a base camp for exploring the area. Spaces are big and spread out. Everything was clean and well maintained,

What a host.
Found us a site by the river a little secluded and with a great fire pit.
Stay two nights whilst riding in the Gros Ventre mountains
Scout
Very nice little off-ish grid campground in Wyoming. The camp host is super nice and there is water spaced out around the campground. All in all a nice place for only an hour south of Jackson Hole. Verizon At&t and Tmobile all had reception.
Scout
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. I came in late July and there were lots of motorcycles and ATVs. It was quiet from 7 PM to 7 AM.
LegendWe took a spin through this USFS campground but decided not to stay. The price seemed too high to us at $20. The campground was crowded and though there were plenty of sites available, there were just so many big groups of people who seemed to be set up for a long stay which gave the campground a noisy, busy vibe. The sites were nice though, lush and green and many of them right along the river. Sites were fairly private and included a bear box and picnic table and fire pit. There are pit toilets here, and trash dumpsters and a propane cylinder recycling bin (no other recycling available). Water spigots throughout the campground as well. No cell reception for either ATT or Verizon. There is a host on site.
Traveler
We stayed here the night before our weekend trip to Jenny Lake in Grand Teton National Park. We were able to follow the directions easily from The Dyrt app, and road was easy to navigate with a minivan. We found a nice flat area where another car was parked. Site even had a fire pit. Lots of mosquitos, but common for this area. Great find!
Scout
A stunningly gorgeous campground 9 miles up the gravel road. 2wd F150 did just fine but it didn't rain much. Saw some passenger cars but they didn't have an easy time of it in the county regrading of the road.
Had no problems with wildlife but the site host did a great job of making sure everyone had been keeping a clean camp.
Legend
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. 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.
TravelerAll around it was wicked awesome
Guide
It took me about 90 minutes once I hit the unpaved portion of the road. Very rough. Averaged about 5 to 10 mph. I have a 4x4 van. I did see a Subaru coming the other way. Would not want to travel this road if it was wet and muddy.
However, the campground and surrounding area are beautiful. Lots of hiking nearby around the lake and into the Winds. The sites are fairly private and spread out. The clean vault toilets are like little log cabins. There was only a handful of sites occupied while I was there in mid-October.
GuideThe very long gravel road to get here is terrible but 100% worth it! Doable in a 2WD but recommend 4WD. The campsites are semi private and there is lots so dont be worried! The surroundings are beautiful and the lake is a short walk which is nothing less of stunning. Would definitely revisit.
Traveler
This is a wide open dispersed location along the Green River. You might be competing with free grazing cattle, but they're respectful. It's a beautiful spot. The road in is washboard, so be patient.
Traveler
Very well kept camp spots. Each has a fire pit with grill on it. Our spot, 16, has a beautiful view of the mountains on the other side of the highway. Only downside, is the road noise from being so close to the highway. Pit toilets and water are available, we paid $20 for a single spot in September. Very close to the Snake River too
ScoutThis spot is a bit tricky to find on the map but on Google maps the road is called "SOUTH fall creek road”. Hopefully that is helpful!
GuideIt’s a nice RV and overnight cannot tent spot before you get to Jackson or Yellowstone. Showers and clean bathrooms
ScoutWe just finished a 2 night stay and it was breathtaking. Lots of bears but with 2 campers, 2 dogs, kids, and a gennie kicking on periodically we didn't see any.
We parked right on the creek, biked the road/trail, and loved the solitude.
Teton County rangers popped by as we were leaving but that was about it.
Road is minimum maintenance so it's a tight fit but we got a class A with trailer and a 36ft bumper pull back past the creek crossing. I do not recommend crossing the creek and going right in anything that size unless you are a VERY skilled driver. Up until then, it's just a dirt road so, no biggie.
LegendQuiet site in the Pinedale area, so that's a positive. It's also by a creek, so you have fishing and water. This area is used for fishing, hunting, trapping, camping, hiking, and wildlife viewing.
It’s a rough drive in down the last road. I recommend high clearance, 4WD even better. The main road in is improved gravel and easy, but there are hairpin turns on the hill, so I don't recommend long rigs or long 5th wheels. I went in with a regular clearance front wheel drive, but it was dicey.
Scout
Very clean, tidy site with plenty of space. Extremely helpful owner helped us sort something with another part of our trip.
GuideIf you want to see clear rivers and beautiful scenery this is the spot to hit! Tons of free camping spots along the way up a long gravel road till the actual campground. Beautiful spots along the river and 1 mile down the road from a GORGEOUS waterfall. Hot spring offered as well but looked more like a pool lounge. Would be fun with a group of people. Campground was quiet and well maintained. Plenty of foliage around for fires. Host paid a friendly visit which was nice! Fit our 33’ pull behind.
GuideThis is camping at its finest. Tons of options to choose from that have different levels to the amount of ruggedness you want your camping to be. We found a spot on the creek and tucked away. It’s best country so be prepared with proper food storage and spray.

Easy drive up campsites. Level parking
