Moose Creek Campground

We ended up here on July 18 for two nights since we could not get any camping in or near Yellowstone National Park.  We drove in the south entrance, which is just after exiting the north entrance of Grand Teton National Park.  We were able to find a parking spot along the roadway with river and waterfalls nearby.  We took a short walk to the falls and along the river to let Buddy get his paws wet.  We stayed here a couple of hours watching tourists enjoy wading and swimming in the fridged  waters.  We headed north toward Old Faithful, but did not think we could find parking for our 65 foot length.  We got stuck in over an hour traffic jam near the midway geyser basin and then hit 10 miles of construction on a gravel road.  We decided to head for West Yellowstone on the west entrance.  We stopped along a long pullout along the river with a family of elk grazing along the river.  Took some pictures and headed out of the park, but all campgrounds were full, so we headed north toward Bozeman, Montana.  That is where we found this campground about 90 miles from Old Faithful.  This was a small campground with only 18 spots along a river and we purchased the last site and it was right on the river; a pull through alongside the campground roadway.  It had a good view of the river, picnic table and fire pit and we had our first campfire of our trip here.  We paid $7.50 per night with our senior pass.  There was no dump station or water for the RV here, and there was traffic noise from Hwy 191.  I rate this park F***.
We cruised into Bozeman one day to get supplies and do our laundry.
