     If only every site had this much outdoors fun stuff, what a great globe it would be. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Rosebud Creek - East, and one of the main characteristics of the surroundings of Elpestrine Lake is Snowbank Mountain. A short visit to Charlie Falls is always worthwhile, and there's magnificent hiking along the Copeland Lake Trail. This lake is so wonderful. While you're here at Elpestrine Lake,  
   you could also explore pretty Glissade Lake.
Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Absaroka Range. Bergschrund Lake is a nearby lake that you could take a look at; while you're here, you could check out Falls Creek. All the outdoors fun things in the Absaroka Range will keep you coming back time and again. There's so much to do here at Elpestrine Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Crazy Creek Campground is a splendid spot for that; don't leave Elpestrine

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....
