Best Time to Camp at Hatchet Campground
Experience the dramatic seasonal transformations of the Wyoming high country at Hatchet Campground. Winter blankets the forest in pristine snow while temperatures plunge into frigid territory, creating a wonderland for the hardy souls who venture forth. As spring melts into summer, the campground awakens with moderate temperatures and buzzing mosquitoes that remind visitors to pack their repellent. The golden days of autumn usher in shoulder season after September 15, when the campground transforms into a free camping haven—though amenities are limited during this peaceful period.
Peak season offers trails and fishing; summer mosquitoes are a frequent complaint.
Good fall scenery but increased hunter/staging activity noted; amenities begin winding down after 9/15.
Spring/shoulder season praised in reviews; can be free/less serviced before hosts arrive.
Site remains accessible but is largely unserviced after Sept 15; winter camping uncommon and cold.
Planning Tips
- Peak Season: Peak season starts in spring and ends on September 15 annually. Shoulder season or free camping occurs after amenities are turned off.. Book 2-3 months ahead.
- Operating Season: Open seasonally until September 15 annually. After September 15, amenities like water, restrooms, and trash service are unavailable, but the site remains accessible for free camping without services.
- Current Alerts: No specific active alerts mentioned beyond seasonal closure dates and amenity shutdown after September 15.
