Upper Coffee Pot Campground
Upper Coffee Pot Campground is situated along the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. This area of gently rolling hills is covered with a lodgepole pine forest. With river flowing by, this has to be one of the most idyllic settings one could find. There are several sights nearby to see such as Upper and Lower Mesa Falls, Henry's Lake State Park, Harriman State Park and Yellowstone National Park.
