Camping at vedauwoo during off season
|
I read the camping isn’t open till June? can you still camp here in May? |
|
I bet you can camp along the road just south of the main area. Bring your own water. |
|
I haven't been yet this year, but in past years often the snow remains well into May hindering access, even very close to the official campgrounds/entrance to the main area, and roads in remain closed. I remember there was a website with road closure, and accessibility info. Sorry I don;t know the link. |

Thanks, sounds like it’ll be an adventure |
|
There’s usually camping on the Blair Road and up by Curt Gowdy State Park |

Here’s the traffic cam at vedauwoo and rt 80 I just found wyoroad.info/highway/webcam… |

There is dispersed camping outside of the campground scattered throughout the whole area. Most of which I belive to be year round. If you're okay with camping outside of the campground, just take a look at the Medicine Bow National Forest Pole Mountain Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM). There are some seasonal designations, but you should be able to camp within 5 minutes of the campground. Dispersed Camping/Game Retrieval has a good description on the MVUM map. I hope this is helpful, non redundant information! |

There's a little bit of snow at Walt's Wall but I didn't see any anywhere else. I hope they open the road soon. We've been car camping at the road closure and hiking in from there. |

Call the Medicine Bow Forest office that's listed on the Vedauwoo forest service webpage. |
