As far as the raised connection, I'm really only hearing guesses and I'm really surprised by that!
From your research, looks like downtheroad nailed it - did you read the responses to your own question?

They would flood and over whelm the septic system if they were at ground level.
There was more than one correct response. But what makes one response correct and the other guys wrong with no reference that gives one more weight than the other?
Yellowstone Fishing bridge is by far NOT the only campground in mountains nor the snow belt. Every state has campgounds with full hook ups that can flood. And how about down south and any coastal campgrounds where hurricanes and tropical storms are not uncommon. They do not all have raised connections.
Its clear (to me anyway) this is a rare measure of prevention for a possible...even assumed problem. If Fishing Bridge for example, tightly capped all their connections before they closed for the winter (which I know they do anyway, as not to attract animals)...would that not provide the same result?
