Wapiti Campground
Wapiti Campground hosts 41 campsites on the North Fork of the Shoshone River, next to the historic Wapiti Ranger Station. "Wapiti" (pronounced WA-puh-tee) is the American Indian word for "elk." Visit the nearby Wapiti Wayside to learn about grizzly bears, other wildlife, and general visitor information. The trailhead from the campground leads into the Washakie Wilderness via Elk Fork Creek. No cell service is available. *This site is accessible to persons with mobility impairments. Maximum spur 50 feet.
