Best Time to Camp at Yellowstone Group Campground

Wake to crisp mountain mornings where your breath forms clouds in the frigid air, with dew points hovering around 8°F during peak season. The high-altitude climate delivers predominantly clear, azure skies—enjoying sunshine about 65% of the time—while gentle breezes averaging just 3 mph whisper through the pines. Though the dry mountain air keeps precipitation at bay during summer months, adventurous souls venturing here in shoulder seasons should prepare for the possibility of snow dusting the landscape at these lofty elevations.

Summer(Jun-Aug)
4.0 / 5

Peak season (late May–Sept) supports fishing, hiking, wildflowers and good weather for activities.

Best
Fall(Sep-Nov)
4.5 / 5
Top 14% in UT

Aspen groves “paint the landscape gold each autumn” — excellent fall color and quieter shoulder-season appeal.

Spring(Mar-May)
3.0 / 5

Late-spring opening (late May) gives limited spring access; weather is variable per reviews.

Winter(Dec-Feb)
Not recommended

Campground is closed/outside peak season in winter; winter services/usage not described.
