Ask about this camp →U.S. Forest Service lists this site. On most of their ground you can camp away from developed sites pretty much anywhere — so treat this as a known-good spot, not the only one allowed. The unit sets stay limits and how far off road and water you must be. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

The unit that manages Warm Springs Dispersed
Stay limits, road closures and fire restrictions at Warm Springs Dispersed are set by Shoshone National Forest, not by the campsite — check there before you go.
Snow, and when this opens
The nearest automatic snow station is Little Warm at 9,370 ft, about 6 miles away. It sits about 1,004 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.

Likely — The record is good enough to put a pin on, but thin in places. Treat the details as a starting point, not gospel.
How it was placed
Developed FEE campground (not free) - review | auto:usfs-fee 2026-08-20: US Forest Service developed campground, agency coordinates, agency states a fee. No dollar amount in the agency record -- expect a charge and confirm the current rate before you go. Not field-verified. | Fee 2026-08-26: $5 per night, single site -- the cheapest published rate in this batch, and it is a real published rate, not an estimate. Note the mismatch in what this place is called: we and the Forest Service's site record both file it as Warm Springs DISPERSED, but the Shoshone publishes it as Warm Springs CAMPGROUND, with a fee, a stay limit and bear boxes. Come prepared to pay with CASH or CHECK. First come, first served; open year round when accessible; 16-day stay limit; maximum spur length 32 feet; food storage is required and bear boxes are provided; there is no garbage collection, so pack it out. An Interagency Senior/Access pass gets 50% off a single campsite. There is no recreation.gov listing -- a coordinate search around this pin returns nothing within 6 miles.
