About

Little Goose Campground is a small, primitive campground tucked into the Bighorn National Forest south of Sheridan, Wyoming. With just 3 rustic sites featuring 40-foot spurs, the campground provides a quiet, secluded experience for those willing to make the journey. Basic amenities include a vault toilet, fire pits, and picnic tables at each site, but there is no potable water, so campers must bring their own supply. Access to Little Goose requires a high-clearance 4-wheel drive vehicle. From Sheridan, travel south on WY 332 about 4 miles to WY 335, continue south another 10 miles, then turn left onto Forest System Road 314. The campground lies approximately 2 miles further on what the Forest Service describes as a very steep and rugged road. Several small streams are nearby, adding to the remote backcountry character. The campground operates first-come-first-served with no fees and no reservations. A 14-day stay limit applies. Campers must pack out all trash. The campground typically opens in early June and remains accessible through October, weather and road conditions permitting.
