ElevationAt 6,200 feet above sea level, Mike Harris Campground offers a true high-country experience where the air is crisp and the views are endless. This alpine elevation creates a dynamic environment where weather can shift from sunshine to storms in minutes, adding an element of mountain adventure to every stay.

Natural Features and SceneryImmerse yourself in a pristine mountain ecosystem where towering Douglas fir and lodgepole pine create a natural cathedral overhead. The melodic sounds of Trail Creek provide a constant soundtrack as it winds through the campground, offering anglers the chance to cast for native Yellowstone cutthroat and feisty brook trout. Keep your camera ready for magical wildlife encounters - majestic moose often browse through camp at dawn, while graceful deer emerge at dusk. Come summer, the forest floor explodes with a painter's palette of wildflowers, from delicate lupines to cheerful Indian paintbrush, creating an ever-changing tapestry of color.
Geological RegionMike Harris Campground sits within the dramatic geological wonderland of Teton Pass, where ancient forces sculpted a landscape of rugged beauty. Trail Creek has carved its path through this mountainous terrain over millennia, creating a lush riparian corridor that supports diverse ecosystems. The surrounding forests of Douglas fir and lodgepole pine thrive in this unique environment, their roots anchored in soil enriched by centuries of geological processes. This dynamic landscape bursts with life each summer as wildflower meadows paint the hillsides, while the area's varied terrain provides ideal habitat for the region's iconic wildlife, from wandering moose to delicate deer.
