Sinks Canyon WHMA — Popo Agie Campground

FIRE BAN: WGFD flags this area as 'Fire Ban is in Effect for this Area' -- check before you plan on any open flame. ACCESS DATES: Open year round. Confirm with Game and Fish before you go -- these areas commonly close seasonally for wintering wildlife. This is a designated campground on the Sinks Canyon Wildlife Habitat Management Area in Fremont County, land acquired or administered by the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission. The area runs about 514 acres. Camping here is genuinely free and first come, first served -- and unlike neighbouring states, Wyoming does NOT make you buy a license or a habitat/entrance pass simply to be on the land or to camp. (If you intend to hunt or fish while you are there, that is a different matter: you need the appropriate Wyoming license and a conservation stamp for that activity.) The rules that bind: you may only camp in the designated spots, no more than 14 consecutive days, and you cannot leave a camp unattended more than 48 hours. After you hit the limit you have to be off that same Game and Fish land for at least 72 hours before returning. Some areas post a limit shorter than 14 days on the sign at the entrance -- if the sign says less, the sign wins. Area-specific regulations from Game and Fish: Sinks Canyon WHMA is managed as Sinks Canyon State Parks by Wyoming State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails, as such specific regualtions apply. Please inquire with Sinks Canyon State Parks about specific regulations. Amenities listed by Game and Fish for the area: Parking, Comfort Station, Campground These are working wildlife areas first and campgrounds second -- they exist for habitat, so expect gravel, expect stock, and leave it cleaner than you found it. We have not visited; confirm current conditions and closures with the Wyoming Game and Fish Lander regional office before you go.

Snow, and when this opens

The nearest automatic snow station is Townsend Creek at 8,720 ft, about 5 miles away. It sits about 2,058 ft higher than this camp, so treat it as a guide rather than a reading for this spot. We do not repeat a depth here, because any number we stored would be stale by the time you read it — the station publishes today's.
