Summer may still be about 5-to-6 months away, but an experienced camper knows that the time is either now or is coming soon, to make some of those camping reservations.
Beginning at 10am Tuesday, January 10th, backcountry camping permits will be available online for Grand Teton National Park and the John D. Rockefeller Junior Memorial Parkway.
The park advises that campers make their reservations early because camping spots are expected to fill quickly.
Backcountry camping includes campsites that are not accessible by vehicle except for Spalding Bay.
A backcountry trip requires advance planning and obtaining a permit.
Car camping or sleeping overnight in vehicles is not allowed in park pullouts, parking areas, picnic areas, or any place other than a designated campground.
Overnight parking at trailheads is only permitted with a backcountry permit.
