Channel Introduce
Welcome to Channel Campground, a hidden gem nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Yellowstone National Park, WY. This campground is an ideal destination for both first-time visitors and seasoned adventurers looking to immerse themselves in nature. Whether you're planning a late start on Lewis Lake or seeking a peaceful retreat, Channel Campground offers a unique experience with its well-protected tent sites and convenient beach access.
The campground features a delightful tent site situated above the beach, providing a serene and private setting for your stay. The cook area, located right on the beach's edge, allows you to enjoy meals with a stunning view of the lake. While the surrounding area was affected by the 1988 fires, a few old-growth trees have survived, adding to the charm and character of the site.
- Accessibility: Perfect for first or last nights at Shoshone, with no big climbs required to reach the tent and cooking areas.
- Beach Access: Easy access to the beach for relaxation and water activities.
- Vault Toilet: A vault toilet is available up the hill from the campsite for your convenience.
While the campground offers many plusses, it's important to note a few considerations. The climb up to the pit toilet on the adjacent hill can be challenging, and the boggy marsh area may attract mosquitoes. Additionally, fishing on this end of the lake may not be as productive as other areas.

Okay, this is the place you want to stay for either your 1st or last night at Shoshone. If you are looking to get a late start on Lewis Lake, this is an ideal spot to stay once you get up the Channel. This is a delightful site with a well protected tent site up from the beach, and a great cook area right on the beach's edge. The area around the site was decimated by the '88 fires, but a few old growth trees survived right at the site. Plusses: Accessibility for 1st or last nights, no big climbs up to tent and cooking area, easy beach access Minuses: CLIMB up to pit toilet on adjacent hill, boggy marsh area can be a haven for mosquitoes, fishing is pretty bad on this end of lake.
This is a review of the back country camp spot 8Q9 on Lewis lake. This was a beautiful and serene location. There is a vault toilet up the hill from the camp site.
