Rv campgrounds near Gran Tetons

When we went to Colter Bay the early part of June, the sites that held bigger rigs was closed for some construction work. According to a friend who called them, the work is supposed to be done by July 2nd and will be open for business. With the Senior Pass, the price will be $11.50 per day for dry camping at both Colter Bay and Gros Ventre. The length limit on the open sites at Colter Bay wa 24' so we went to Gros Ventre and had no trouble getting a spot. Since we were fishing, we had to drag the boat back and forth each day and this was a bit more inconvenient than staying at Colter Bay. The FHU campground at Colter Bay is over $50 per night, at least that was the posted price last year. And, without reservations, you will be hard pressed to get in there. Signal Mountain is a beautiful campground but, again, length restrictions and we couldn't get in there either. Either place you stay, make sure you take a cruise boat on both Jackson and Jenny Lakes so you can get very close to the wonder of the Tetons right out the sides of the boats. Also, great hiking trails and sightseeing, buffalo, elk, moose, bears (black and grizzly), antelope, etc. It's a veritable wonderland. We usually spend three weeks up there, June, July and August for about one week at a time. Wouldn't miss it for the world.
