Public land it sits in

On Wilderness Atlas →

Bridger-Teton National Forest begins about 1.5 miles away, and it is the closest of these.

Each unit is published as a centre point and an acreage rather than a boundary, so this section stands it in for a circle of the same area. Whether a campground is inside, and how far it is from one it is outside, are both approximate.

Natural features

The cabin sits in the valley of Greys River near Corral Creek at an elevation of 7,600 feet, and offers spectacular views up the Corral Creek drainage. The cabin sits in an open space with a few tall trees. A pine forest sweeps up the nearby mountain slopes.
