:):) - Johno02ExplorerWest Yellowstone. Several nice commercial campgrounds. Be ready for some long drives, Yellowstone is a big place and nothing is close to anything else. Carry your Infared thermometer.
- HorsedocExplorer IICommercial CG? Old Faithful is a long way from any private land and hence commercial CGs. I am guessing that West Yellowstone is as close as any and Grizzly CG in W Yellowstone is great. If you mean FHU CGs then the only one in the park is Fishing Bridge, which is likely further away than W Yellowstone.
This place is huge and not a lot of roads that run through it. - LwiddisExplorer IIStaying inside the park eliminates the long drive in and out and the waits at the entrance stations.
- Ed_CExplorerThe best is Grizzly in West Yellowstone; there are other nice ones in West Yellowstone. It's about a 30 minute drive depending on what animals show up along the way.
