Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Planning a camping trip from Salt Lake City, UT, to Yellowstone.  Any suggestions concerning routing from SLC, either up through Idaho or Grand Teton NP Wyoming.  Which routing would provide best camping opportunities, in a travel trailer, best scenery and roads?  What about camping opportunities around West Yellowstone, South Yellowstone or inside the park itself?  From there the plan is for the Mt Rushmore area. 
Any suggestions/ideas would be appreciated.  Thanks..
Marty

When I left Yellowstone I went through West Yellowstone and took I-15 South down to Salt Lake City. I know there was a campground just North of the Idaho - Utah border but it was just a place to park your RV and sleep. I am not sure if it had electrcity or water because me and my friends sleep in a tent.

I do know that there is another route that heads south from Jackson but I was toild there is a very scary pass you have to cross.

Last summer my husband rode LatoJa (Logan, UT to Jackson, WY in a day on a bicycle - 206 miles) and the route followed was very pretty. Logan to Preston, ID to Montpelier, ID to Afton, WY to Alpine, WY and turn right to follow the Snake River into Jackson. I remember seeing USFS camping along river.

Take a look at http://www.lotojaclassic.com/ and navigate to course info, course map to view the route. The red line is what the bikes followed and the blue is what I followed as his support vehicle. Definitely follow the red route.

Enjoy!

We went to Yellowstone last fall from the opposite direction and someone had sent us to a website with a wonderful writeup and maps telling you all the different routes and what to take in different vehicles.

I'm sure this will help you. Enjoy the trip!

Fred, that site is terrific and exactly what I was looking for.  That fellow really put a lot of detail and experience into documenting his Yellowstone travels.  I'll have a copy of it in my truck.  Thanks very much.  Marty
