About this campground

This trail begins at the end of Forest Service road 656 and ends at the Teton Crest Trail (008).  Fishing is usually good in Badger Creek.  The trail forks at the canyon head, 4.1 miles from its beginning.  The left (north) fork leads to Dead Horse Pass and the dramatic beauty of Bitch Creek.  The right (south) fork leads towards Green Lakes.  Both routes out of the head of Badger Creek are steep.
