The smaller of the two parks in Caribou-Targhee National Forests, Caribou is a welterweight not to be underestimated. Just south of its older brother, this land spans Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho, and is a crucial spot for supporting caribou populations. None of the animals here are bashful: bison, moose, deer, mountain lions, falcons, elk, and even black bears abound! Beautiful to snap shot from a distance. Just south of the forest, Bear Lake is a fun spot to take a dip after you hike one of Caribou’s dozens of peaks (Mead Peak and Hawks Peak have gorgeous views, as does Big Elk Mountain at the northern tip of the park). At the south end, you’ll find campgrounds, fast flowing creeks, and the Minnetonka Cave at St. Charles Canyon. This is a site to see, but it stays 40 degrees down there all year so be sure to pack a coat, even if you’re sweating above ground. When you’re done, stop in the charming small town of Montpelier, surrounded by rolling hills and full of retro grocers and kitschy eateries. Yum!

Weekend Trip to Moonlight Mine Acres

This is our second time here and it was just as wonderful and quiet and peaceful as last time. It was so good that the weather decided to give us heat, cold, wind, and rain. But that still didn’t mess up a lovely time camping here. It’s so close to my home that I wish I could come out every weekend.

Adam’s land is beautiful and peaceful. It was the perfect spot for a quick stop off on our cross country trip in our van. Enjoyed the sunrise views! Wish we could have stayed longer! Adam was communicative and provided lots of helpful info.

I love love love this spot. I decided to do a road trip instead of fly to my destination just so I could stop here and stay overnight. The site at the top where they are building a glamping type dome is just gorgeous. 360 views. Last fall I stayed here with my dog, and I have since lost him to cancer so this trip was a bit of a memorial. I remember him joyfully running around and exploring as the sun set on the mountains. Definitely recommend if your goal is privacy, beauty, and plenty of space.

Great place to camp! We had a spot all to ourselves. The directions were great and everything was just as described. It was hot but no bugs. We were close to town for a few things but far enough it was out in the woods.

A safe area with other travelers. I happened to arrive on a bad weekend (4th of July weekend) so there were fireworks until pretty late. But aside from that it was nice.

We loved Adam's multiple camp spots he has made for RV/tent camping. The views were beautiful and being so close to the city. We enjoyed that our dogs did not have to be leashed and got to be themselves. He was very accommodating in every aspect. Will be back again.

This was a great stop for the night. Close to the highway, in the middle of town, but also quiet and peaceful. We lucked out and had the place to ourselves. Our dog had the run of the place. 30 amp power and water worked with no problems.
