Where is Wyoming Cowgirl Camp?

Cowgirl Camp Wyoming basecamp is located about an hour and twenty minutes from Jackson, WY.

We are based in the Bridger Teton National Forest, about five minutes from the South Entrance of Yellowstone National Park.

We’re right between Yellowstone and Grand Teton, which makes it easy to access both parks while staying in a more quiet, backcountry setting.

There is a gas station and convenience store at Flagg Ranch about four minutes by car from our camp. Colter Bay is 30 minutes from us.

We’ll send detailed directions and arrival info ahead of your trip, and you’re always welcome to give us a call if you have questions getting here.
