Facilities

Tie City Campground has sites able to accommodate tents, trailers, and RVs. Sites are equipped with picnic tables and campfire rings. The campground also offers vault toilets, trash collection, and a water handpump. No electrical hook-ups, water hook-ups, or black water hook-ups are available. Handpump water may be available in this campground from July to September. These dates may vary due to weather, well and/or pump maintenance, and water testing requirements.

Natural Features

The Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests and Thunder Basin National Grassland encompasses nearly 3 million acres from central and northeastern Wyoming to north-central Colorado. Lodgepole pine, aspen, fir, spruce, and shrubs dominate the landscape of the national forests. The Grassland boasts numerous species of grasses and wildflowers that add color to the landscape during warmer months. Black bear, bobcat, coyote, elk, mule deer, pronghorn antelope, and moose are just some of the many animals that inhabit these rich and diverse lands.

The Tie City and Happy Jack trail system can be accessed from the campground or the adjacent trailhead. It has a network of challenging mountain bike trails, and is also used in the winter for cross country skiing. The South Fork of Lodgepole Creek runs close to the Tie City Campground and across the 719 road from Yellow Pine, which has good brook trout fishing.

Nearby Attractions

Check-in time is after 2:00 p.m. on the first day of the reservation.
