Boulder Park

Wednesday, September 18, 2024

Other Names

Bighorn National Forest, Tensleep Lake, Meadowlark Lake, Buck Mountain

Last Known StatusOpen

This part of the Bighorn National Forest offers miles of logging roads and double track ATV trails to explore, plus a wide range of scenery that consists of snow capped mountains, grassy meadows, lakes and streams and beautiful evergreen pine trees.

The wider machines are permitted on the forest service roads but as you head up towards Buck Mountain the trails are limited to vehicles 50 inches or less in width. The trails in this area are higher in elevation and are more rugged, so it’s likely you will encounter snow drifts well into late summer.

There are several campgrounds to choose from but Boulder Park Campground is the closest to the main highway and offers some spacious sites that are easy to get into. Each campsite at Boulder Park comes with a picnic table, lantern holder and BBQ grill. There are also two water spigots but no electric hookups so come prepared.
