Default Yellowstone- Gardiner Entrance

I don't care if we camp in or near the Park


There is a very nice campground on Henry's Fork at Island Park. It was
clave headquarters for a Western Clave held a few years ago. You'd be
right on the river. I believe it is state run. An easy haul to West
Yellowstone, but the Gardiner entrance would be a ways to drive. The
camp ground accepts campers and tenters. Nice place, but a steep walk
down to the river.

BTW, there are people who haunt this place, certain confirmed axxholes,
who will tell you that there are no hatches on HF or in the park in
September. I would guess all the hatches we saw, caddis and
mahoganies, were just apparitions. Great fishing in September. And,
no crowds.
