99% of our local camping is done at the Gros Ventre Campground on the southern end of GTNP. It's actually considered the "overflow" campground but we really prefer it to all the other campgrounds because, except for the massive Yellowstone fires of 1988 when it was used for firefighters, we have never seen it filled. There is lots of room to spread out there. The Grand Teton Lodge Company is the concessionaire and sites are $23/nt. I know that at least a few of the loops are Generator-friendly. New for this year are the addition of Electrical hookups in Loop D. These sites are going for $48/nt. I suspect that these sites are also available for Handicapped use as they have brand spanking new concrete pads that accommodate even very large Class A's, as far as we could see on our bike rides, anyway. (And if you want to sound like a "local", it's pronounced "Grow Vaunt"!)
We were there last weekend and for some reason, Bison were really in short supply, but boy, we had never seen so many Antelope! You need to scan the sage flats carefully, looking for their tell-tale signature cream and tan-colored hides.
Hope you have a safe and happy visit!
