Description
Wyoming, Norris, Yellowstone National Park.
The campground is centrally located in the park near the Norris Geyser Basin and the intersection of highway 89 and Norris Canyon road. Note, the map pin provided on the Campbase map is not accurate. This campground does not have an address.
Because Yellowstone Natinal Park is so large, driving distances between sites can be long. Yellowstone is a drivers park.
Comment
This campground is generally open from 5/17 to 9/30. This is dry camping however, the roads and camp spots are paved. This campground is managed by the National Park Service.
The campground is centrally located in the park but not close to any shops or services. Canyon Village has everything you could need and is approximately 12 miles to the east of this location. The Norris Geyser Basin is within walking distance from the campground.
Old Faithful is approximately 30 miles to the south on the Grand Loop highway.
There is a nice campground map here: http://hfc.nps.gov/carto/PDF/YELLmap1.pdf
This is a trip planner with great information:

IMPORTANT NOTE ON CELL AND DATA SERVICE:
Cell service is sporadic at best. In most parts of the park there is no phone service no matter how good your carrier is. For cell service you will need to visit one of the lodges or villages. Most campgrounds have no service.
Cellular DATA: Same story, no Internet/data service. Even if you can get service at a lodge or village it's still painfully slow. The best thing to do is to go to Old Faithful Village or Canyon Village and find the Global Gossip Hot Spot. It will be in a sitting room. They have a very fast Internet connection for about $5 per hour. It was worth the price. The phone number for them is (877) 658-5597
Bring your mosquito repellant. Mosquitos were plentiful during my visit in June 2013.
