Norris Campground

Beautiful walk in site near the river. Loop A W-1 Doesnt really have proper trees to put up a tarp and slightly on a hill. Rained the duration we camped here and ultimately got rained out. Buffalo frequent the open meadow and even saw trumpeter swans. Fire pit and table on site. Firewood is 7.99 a bundle. Ice also sold here.

Nice campground. We stayed three nights and had a very comfortable time.We arrived at 6am in late July and joined the line to get a pitch which is the way it works. We did feel that compared with other sites the process of getting everyone allocated a pitch was not as slick as it could have been. Other sites allow you to sit in line in the warmth of your car or to establish your place on a list and return later when pitches are vacated. Here you had to stand in the morning cold until a pitch became available which can be a long process. People have until 11am to vacate or renew.The walk to the geothermal area of Norris Basin is just one mile from this camground along a pleasant trail and is highly recommended.

This is a first come, first served campground, but we'll worth the risk! The camp sites are larger and more spread out than Canyon's reservation sites. Each campsite has its own fire ring, table and food storage box. The sites in loop A are right on the Gibbon river and the views are amazing.
