Kristin’s spot was a perfect for a quick weekend stop. I was met immediately when I arrived and the spot was easy to get into and level. I would stay here again every time I’m in Alpine.

1 night at Abi H.’s Land Naomi at SSRiverFarm

Beautiful spot with an outlook down the valley. Easy access to Yellowstone National Park, and only ~40mins drive from the Cody Rodeo. Camped with a 1-man tent and basic air mattress, would probably suit someone a bit more equipped. Sunrise was beautiful, and I’m sure sunset would have been too if I’d been at the site as it went dark. Steep and rubbly driveway so maybe not best for low clearance 2WD vehicles.

Weekend Trip to Aspen and Pine Camp on Middle Butte

Beautiful site in a scenic part of Wyoming. We enjoyed hearing the wild life while still having access to the road in case of emergency. The lot was pretty clean but did have some remnants of possibly old shelters or sheds of some kind. Having the bathroom was so great even just a pit toilet can change the whole camp experience. Overall it was a nice private area and we felt safe and comfortable.
