How hard is it to get into a first come first serve campground this time of year? Of the seven campgrounds in Yellowstone Indian Creek, Lewis Lake, Mammonth, Norris, Pebble Creek, Slough Creek and Tower Falls. Please offer opnions.....No, not afraid of bears..... just very aware....
Answer
I was just up in Yellowstone. Forget tenting, any camping in Yellowstone is a Walmart parking lot. I recommend the national forest campgrounds coming in from Cody or West Yellowstone. The Northeast entrance from Mt. is far better but because of Grizzlies NO TENTS. This time of year it it's hard to find a parking place let alone a campsite. US 212 from the park to Red Lodge, Mt. is one of the best scenic roads in the world. Break camp before dawn see the park and more animals before the tourist arrive. Yellowstone is very crowded with cars, RV's, people and animals.

Answer
It may be a challenge to find a place to stay. An alternative plan may be to stay at Grand Teton National Park, which is just south of Yellowstone. Using this park as your base you will be able to visit both parks. Gros Ventre campground seldom fills even when all the others are full. A 7 day pass covers both Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. I enjoyed the book, "Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park", a Frommer's book. This book has a lot of good suggestions.
