The campground consists of 4 loops including a walk in tent section with water stations, flush toilets, showers, sheltered camp kitchens with wood burning cook stoves, playground, garbage containers, recycling bins and a sani dump. This is Bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly. Some of the sites back onto the North Saskatchewan river with open views towards the valley. The forest here seems stressed or old with no new growth or saplings following behind. The pine beetle has also started to take it's toll on the local pine trees here. The campsites are all open to each other with little privacy. Beautiful Mount Edith Cavell is located near here and offers several nice hikes. Wabasso campground makes a good base camp if you want to spend a few days exploring Jasper and the local area.
