East Table Group Campground specializes in group camping but accommodates a variety of camping styles, including tent and RV setups.
Historical SignificanceEast Table Group Campground stands as a cherished landmark within Bridger-Teton National Forest, where generations of river runners have paused to rest before tackling the Snake River's legendary rapids. The campground has woven itself into the fabric of countless family traditions, serving as both a launching point for aquatic adventures and a gathering place where rafting families share tales of the river's moods and mysteries. These grounds echo with decades of laughter, campfire songs, and the excited chatter of paddlers planning their next descent.
Weather and SeasonsSummer unveils East Table's most inviting personality, with sun-drenched days averaging a comfortable 77°F that gradually cool to peaceful 57°F evenings perfect for stargazing around the campfire. As autumn paints the landscape in golden hues, temperatures dance between a crisp 44°F and 25°F, offering spectacular fall camping for the properly prepared. Winter transforms the area into a frozen wonderland, where only the hardiest adventurers venture forth into the crystalline landscape.
ElevationPerched at a mountain elevation that offers both accessibility and alpine charm, the campground provides that perfect balance of mountain air without the challenges of extreme altitude.
Natural Features and SceneryEast Table unfolds as a natural amphitheater where the drama of the Snake River meets the majesty of surrounding peaks. Just across the highway, the river whispers its ancient songs while towering mountains frame every view like nature's own masterpiece. Alpine wildflowers dot the landscape in summer, while overhead, golden eagles trace lazy circles against azure skies. Curious chipmunks dart between sites, and watchful ground squirrels stand sentinel on rocky outcrops, adding life and movement to this vibrant ecosystem that bridges river corridor and mountain realm.
Geological RegionCradled within the magnificent Bridger-Teton National Forest, East Table occupies a privileged position in one of the West's most dramatic landscapes. Here, the geological forces that carved the Snake River corridor meet the uplifted peaks of the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem, creating a dynamic terrain where alpine meadows cascade toward rushing waters. This mountainous wonderland showcases nature's architectural prowess, from weathered granite faces to river-carved valleys, all within reach of your campsite door.
