     Castle Lake is not the only spot close by, Summerville Lake is a close by lake, and camping at Lake Creek Campground is always a magnificent experience. Man, is there a heap of amusing things to do in the Absaroka Range. If you come at the right time of year, Rosebud Creek - East offers some glorious whitewater. You clearly should adore the Absaroka Range. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Clarks Fork Yellowstone River, and wonderful hiking is available along  
   the Granite Loop Trail.
This lake is so wonderful. A day on the slopes of Red Lodge Mountain is just what you need, and going for a hike on the Upper Granite Loop Trail is always a delightful adventure. If you get bored of Castle Lake, you could also explore close by Alp Lake, and you can go for a hike on the Copeland Lake Trail. All the outdoors amusing stuff in close proximity to Castle Lake will keep you coming back over and over. Don't leave Castle Lake
 
               without first checking out Castle Rock Glacier, and Castle Lake is magnificent enough to spend more than a day at, Beartooth Lake Campground is a magnificent local campground.

Hunter Peak Campground
My family went camping at Hunter Peak Campground for many summers when I was a teenager. We stayed at the very large two family campsite, the deepest if I remember right next to the path taking you to the bridge. My grandparents now rest there forever and so do my memories of childhood. I look forward to taking my family there one day, keeping with those wonderful family lines....
