Grand Tetons experience anyone?
Would love to hear peoples feedback on Camping at the Grand Tetons. Of course I already have my 2014 schedule filled for camping, but would love to know in advance what I need to do for 2015. Look...

For staying inside the park, Colter Bay and Gros Ventre are your choices.
Colter Bay has two types: park campground or concession run campground. you can make a reservation at the concession run campground and it has hookups. the park campground has a dump station and water and flush toilets.
I personally do not like Colter Bay because it is in a forest without views of the lake or anything but trees and campers. But that's just me. :)
Gros Ventre is bigger and well shaded but has more open with views of the mountains. It has water and dump station and toilets and is close to Jackson which we like. There are many sites you can fit into.
On both places, try to arrive on Tuesday, Weds, or Thursday, in mid morning to early afternoon.
Generally, you will not need a/c. You are allowed to run your genny from 8a.m. to 8p.m. and they hold you to that pretty tight.
