We have several spaces available at the Gros Ventre group campsite (August 1-7,), as well as reservations at a number of backcountry campsites in Garnett Canyon. Occupy yourself during the day, or spend a night in the backcountry, and share a sense of comraderie with your fellow mountaineers in one of North America's most dramatic alpine environments. You can secure a spot in the group site for a $40 deposit.
